An article in PerthNow, Scarborough Police search for nine men who took motorised picnic tables for a joy ride, says
Life’s a picnic according to these nine blokes who motorised two park benches for an ocean drive through Scarborough on Sunday.
The local police weren’t nearly so happy.
The people using these vehicles could face a number of charges including driving an unlicensed vehicle, driving an unroadworthy vehicle and drink driving.
–Scarborough police spokesman
Yes, this activity could be dangerous and the police should probably stop it, but somehow this problem seems refreshingly innocent given all the problems in the world today.

i supposed they’re bad boys to do this.
it still made me smile! 🙂
Me too!
A bit of harmless fun and all that br0uhaha!
They were certainly creative. 🙂
I’m surprised they din’t make a video and take it “viral” Seems to be the purpose of many pursuits these days! I admit I found it funny, though.
Apparently the story did go viral:
Some police have humour bypasses.
Poor guys. I feel sorry for them — I would hate their job.
I miss the beaches like Scarborough – I miss living in West Australia – of course, my life may not have gone on the journey is has done though 🙂
I imagine you would miss it. It sounds like a neat area.
I hope they just end up with a warning
anything else would be overboard.
I remember being young and stupid
and thank goodness people had a sense of humor back then.
I agree. It was just a fun prank.
