BELLEVUE, Wash. - A Washington state trooper got an eyeful while citing a drunken driver in Bellevue recently.

After pulling over a 1997 Ford Explorer that was drifting between lanes on I-90, the trooper discovered the driver and passenger were naked.

State troopers say the situation demonstrates that drinking and driving isn't only deadly, it can also be embarrassing.

The passenger, a 20-year-old Seattle woman, retrieved a shirt and tried to hide alcohol containers, but the driver made no attempt to cover up.

Both were instructed to put their clothes on. The driver, a 19-year-old Seattle man, was submitted to field sobriety tests and arrested for DUI and "embracing while driving."

The passenger was cited for MIP.
