Teeth On The Highway

From nydailynews.com -

A motorcyclist brought traffic to a standstill on one of Madrid’s busiest highways after he pulled over to look for his false teeth, which flew out of his mouth when he sneezed, according to local media reports.
Two municipal police officers approached the motorcyclist Saturday and ordered him to resume his journey for his own safety.
It wasn’t known if the man found his dentures.
