‘Backseat’ driving cat causes crash
A cat is blamed for a crash even though he or she doesn’t have opposable thumbs.
A Maine woman blamed a cat in her backseat for a crash that saw her car smack into an utility pole Tuesday, Sept. 8
The Lewiston woman told police she became distracted feeding the cat when the crash happened, the Sun Journal in Lewiston said.
Liked any good cat burglar, the cat disappeared after the crash.
New rule: don’t feed a cat while driving.
Incidentally, a new law is set to take effect in Maine this weekend that could see distracted driver fined for accidents.
What do you think? Should distracted drivers be fined here?

Pamela Anderson’s latest PETA ad banned by CNN
Pamela Anderson gets passengers down to the basics in the new (and how could it not be) risque PETA ad “Cruelty Doesn’t Fly.”
‘Cruelty Doesn’t Fly’—Learn More at PETA.org.
The video doesn’t show anything we haven’t seen on “NYPD Blues,” but according to the New York Post, CNN has refused to show it on its Airport Network.
The news network rejected the ad, saying it might not be suitable for children, the Post says.
Anderson plays a naughty airport security guard. She screens and generally abuses characters played by Carol Leifer, Steve-O, Andy Dick and Nina Hagen.
Passengers are stripped of leather, fur and other animal products.
Watch the video and judge for yourself. Be warned, there is a brief shot of two well-chiseled backsides. Don’t worry, neither belongs to Dennis Franz.
