Cops nick-er bare couple in embarrassing breath test
A NORTHERN Territory couple couldn't believe their "luck" when they were pulled up by police for a random breath test, wearing little but their knickers.
Dee Cunningham, 32, of Stuart Park, and husband Mick were sprung at an RBT in the Darwin suburb of Berrimah after going on a Subway run on Sunday night, the Northern Territory News reports.
"It was after 8pm and we quickly wanted to get something to eat," Ms Cunningham said.
"We had no intentions of getting out of the car, as it was pouring down rain and we only wanted to get something at a drive-through - no harm going in undies."
She said she had thought about going in the nude, but luckily changed her mind before getting into the car.
"Hubby told me not to even bother with undies and only put a singlet on ... well I almost did that, but then thought 'hell no, if we got into a prang I didn't want the ambos finding me with no undies on - or my mum having to identify me naked'."
The mother-of-two said it was the "most bloody embarrassing" experience to face police almost naked, when she and her husband were pulled over for a random breath test.
"There we were, hubby only in his boxer shorts, and this copper pulls us over - 'uh oh' was all we said."
Ms Cunningham said she spotted a smirk on the police officer's face when the couple had to turn on the interior lights to find their licences.
"I know the police officer saw enough of us, but he pretended not to look," she said.
"To make the matter worse, the advertising on our car is 'The Love Shop' - so the cops must have had a hell lot of fun with us. I am so glad we did not have to get out of the car."
Ms Cunningham said she had learned her lesson and would never again leave the house in her knickers - but she said her affection for being in the nude ran in the family.
"My dad was once caught streaking at a cricket game and made headlines - mum just thinks it's hilarious having a family like us."
