Owner of Van With Moaning Steering Pump Arrested for Indecency

Police today arrested a local man for indecency after he drove his Pontiac van with a moaning power steering pump past an elementary school several times.  

“It sounded like it was having an orgasm,” said witness Tickle Plimpton.  “It was disgusting.  Thank God the children didn’t hear it.”

Producing lewd automotive noises is a misdemeanor punishable by a $500 fine, according to the state vehicle code.
