Ga. Man Charged With Driving Naked On Interstate

Posted: 11:29 am EDT September 20, 2009Updated: 11:45 am EDT September 20, 2009
BUNNELL, Fla. -- Authorities say a Georgia man was driving naked on the highway in Flagler County, where he repeatedly flashed a woman and her 11-year-old son.

A woman driving a tractor-trailer on Interstate 95 with her son in the cab Thursday reported that a naked man in a sport utility vehicle had been keeping pace with her and performing lewd acts.

She told authorities that the man followed her for about 8 miles, but she was eventually able to get away by pulling into a weigh station.

The woman reported the man and vehicle to the Florida Highway Patrol, and troopers say the caught up with 45-year-old Mark Duffus about 20 miles to the north on the highway.

Duffus was charged with lewd and lascivious exhibition and indecent exposure. He was released Friday on $2,000 bail.

She probably did the right thing by driving to a weigh station (where there are often State Troopers) or to any police facility.


Duffus was charged with lewd and lascivious exhibition and indecent exposure.
After following her for 8 miles, I wouldn't be surprised to also see charges of stalking and (possibly) sexual harassment added.

The woman reported the man and vehicle to the Florida Highway Patrol, and troopers say the caught up with 45-year-old Mark Duffus about 20 miles to the north on the highway.
If she can identify him, or pick him out of a police lineup, this guy will probably do some time.

So you're in the Flagler County Jail? Must be a nice place......I didn't know they provided Internet in the cells. And, at least, they gave you some clothes to put on.

Sad to say, that as a trucker I see MANY strange and unusual things EVERYDAY. Naked driving, surprisingly, doesn't even phase me anymore. I just dial the local state troopers and give them car description and tag numbers now. Surprisingly, now that I think about it, I have made the most calls concerning this IN Georgia.

71-year-old Fort Worth man cited for doing yardwork in the buff

FORT WORTH — Add this to the list of things that should never be done in the nude.
A 71-year-old man was cited for disorderly conduct Sunday after he was spotted trimming his back yard in the buff.
A Fort Worth deputy city marshal discovered the man’s unconventional approach to yardwork Sunday afternoon while on bike patrol near Lake Worth. According to a Fort Worth police report, the man was naked except for shoes.
Upon seeing the deputy approaching, the man dropped the weed trimmer and ran inside his home. After repeated requests by the deputy, he emerged again, wearing shorts.
The man told the deputy that he’d worked in the nude in his back yard before and believed that it was private enough to shield him from others’ view. Police said parts of the chain-link fence do not have privacy slats.
The deputy also pointed out to the man that he lives across the street from a park and along a heavily traveled road. After checking his record to ensure that he is not a sex offender, the deputy issued the man the Class C misdemeanor citation.

And that's why they call them "privacy slats", somehow that's car-related maybe....

People who have bi-polar mental disorders sometimes do this.....especially those what schizophrenia. They are not always aware of what they are doing....or why.

Bi-polar disorders are far more widespread in our society than a lot of people think. Many people need drugs for them (such as lithium), that, for many reasons, they either don't have access to them or are not taking them.
