Naked woman in 'drink driving' case

A woman in Australia was found naked and allegedly under the influence of alcohol when her van crashed.

The woman, 47, had crashed near Cooroy, and she was trapped in the white van for 20 minutes after it left the Bruce Highway and rolled into a drain or ditch, the Courier Mail reported.

Police closed one lane of the highway, about 1.5km north of the Cooroy exit, as fire crews worked to free the woman.

A police spokesman said the woman was taken to the Nambour Hospital with minor injuries and was tested for a blood alcohol reading.

They also revealed they have no idea why she was naked in the vehicle.
