I just ran across this story in the Metro section of the Statesman. The accident happened nearly two weeks ago, but it’s showing up today for some reason. Apparently, a couple returning from Schlitterbahn in New Braunfels decided to remove their wet clothes and drive home nude. I suppose that’s one way to keep the seats from getting wet.

The problem is that they were also allegedly drinking and got into a head on collision with a man from New Braunfels.

Money quotes from the DPS officer on scene:

“The only thing they had on was the radio . . . and their seat belts.”

Alvarez said that in his 13 1/2 years as a DPS trooper, he had never before investigated a crash involving nude drivers.

“But she’s from Austin,” he said, “and I figure Austin folks are a little different.”
