A Canadian man now realises that wearing a clown suit and driving in a somewhat irregular fashion can attract the attention of the police. He has also come to realise that when a police car turns on its emergency lights, it is better to use the brakes to stop rather than to come to a halt by crashing into the police car. The incident occurred when local police responded to reports of a fight and they were searching for the suspect when they spotted the man, driving on the wrong side of the road. Despite seeing the flashing lights, the driver rammed his car at 20-30km/h into the police patrol vehicle but luckily, no-one was hurt. The 29 year old clown suit wearer was found to be driving under the influence of alcohol. The police spokesman, presumably trying not to laugh, commented that the clown would find the incident difficult to explain in court.
