DETROIT — A distracted pantless driver crashed and rolled his vehicle because he was preoccupied with a pornographic movie on his phone, CBS Detroit reported.

The incident occurred Jan. 26 on the highway, Michigan State Police Lt. Mike Shaw told the news site. He said it was one of the strangest things he’s ever seen.

“We see people putting on makeup, we see people doing different things as far as hygiene and it’s almost to the fact there’s so much technology out there a lot of people are more paying attention to what they’re doing other than driving their cars,” Shaw told CBS.

The driver, 58-year-old Clifford Ray Jones, was thrown from his 1996 Toyota after it rolled off the roadway. He was not wearing pants and police found evidence of masturbation.

No other drivers were hurt in the collision.
