Oh no. Wait for it. When Megan Barnes made the insane decision to tidy up her lady garden while driving A CAR, her ex-husband took the wheel. From the passenger seat. As you do. (Not.) When police asked her WTF she was thinking (in a much more polite way), she told officers that "she was meeting her boyfriend in Key West and wanted to be ready for the visit." Of course you did, honey. Have you heard of a bathroom? So as well as driving on a suspended licence and being charged with DUI the day before, Megan can add illegal landscaping to the list. Winner. Don't even get me started on the ex-husband-boyfriend saga. Only in America.

(Ps. No one was hurt, thank goodness.)
