14 DAY TRIAL // A Spanish man brought traffic to a halt on the busy M-30 highway in Madrid, on Saturday morning, after he stopped his motorcycle to look for his false teeth, police sources inform.
According to Publico.es, the man lost his dentures after sneezing while driving down the highway. It basically flew out of his mouth, and the man was determined to find it before continuing his journey.
Municipal Police arrived at the M-30 highway and went to help the middle-aged man, who had stopped his brown scooter on the shoulder of the busy road. Two police officers approached him and asked him if his bike was broken.
The answer was quite unexpected. “No, I sneezed. I've dropped my dentures and am looking for it,” the man said.
The officers asked him to resume his journey for his own safety and that of other drivers on the Spanish highway, which is usually congested due to heavy traffic.
Minutes after the incident, someone called Madrid's emergency service to report that the motorcyclist had pulled over in the same spot and was again obfuscating the traffic.
It is unknown if the man managed to find his false teeth, as when the patrol car returned to the spot, the rider marched hastily.
