Caught on Camera: Motorized picnic tables drive down the street in Australia

Dangerous driving is no picnic, Australian police are reminding the public.

Mobile-wielding motorists and CCTV cameras captured what appear to be two motorized picnic tables driving down a busy street in Perth, Australia last Sunday.

The two tables were driving down the West Coast Highway in the Perth suburb of Scarborough carrying nine passengers clad in shorts, t-shirts, and sandals.

“Police are concerned for the safety of those riding on the tables with no protective clothing, especially when on roads alongside motor vehicles,” Western Australia Police said in a press release.

“There are overall safety concerns particularly if a traffic incident was to occur, resulting in the persons subjecting themselves to potential injury.”
