What would you do if you were driving along and an octopus was on the road? Swerve to avoid it probably! But when this guy did that, he got into a bit of hot water…
Earlier this week a man in Devon was involved in a car crash after he spun out of control upon allegedly seeing an octopus on the road. Now, you can sometimes get octopuses in the seas in the South of England. However, the site of the crash was 5km away from the ocean.
Well it turns out that the driver was high on LSD. He was arrested for dangerously driving under the influence of drugs. Although, the thing that alluded the police was where was this octopus?
The man insisted he saw it. Others thought that he was just tripping out. But it has been found and the case (sort of) solved.
Here is the infamous octopus:
It is unsure how or when the octopus appeared, but it is safe to say that it poses no harm to any other drivers. We suspect that the man will not be driving for a while now and thank goodness that no one was hurt.
