Sex Kills?
I love how this article focuses on the couple having sex instead of the guy whose car caused the damned accident. Let me guess...Sex kills? Hell of a way to go if you ask me.

ST-JOACHIM, Que. (CP) - A 25-year-old man was killed and his partner was seriously injured Friday in a head-on crash that police said took place while the driver was having sex behind the wheel.
Another car veered into the couple's path in this town 25 kilometres northeast of Quebec City, shattering both vehicles and trapping the occupants.
The 25-year-old driver, from Baie-Comeau, Que., was killed on impact and the driver of the other vehicle was gravely injured, said provincial police.
Witnesses said the deceased man and his female passenger were partially undressed, leading police to believe the couple had been having sex prior to impact.
"The two people at this moment were in the midst of having sexual intercourse at the wheel of the vehicle, which makes driving that much more dangerous," said provincial police spokesman Richard Gagne.
Although the couple's car never veered out of its lane, police said their manoeuvre was dangerous and potentially illegal.
"They endangered their safety and that of others," said Gagne.
Provincial police said anyone found to have been having sex at the wheel prior to an accident could face criminal charges ranging from gross indecency to negligence.
Emergency workers used heavy tools to extract the injured victims from their cars.
Provincial police said the 37-year-old driver whose car left its lane was either distracted or fell asleep at the wheel.
