Man Drives For 60 Miles Before Realising He’s Left His Wife At Petrol Station

A forgetful tourist has made headlines after he drove some 60 miles before noticing his wife was no longer in the car.

The driver, known only as Walter, was on holiday in Brazil when he stopped for petrol.

Not realising that his wife had nipped to the bathroom while he was filling the car up, he drove off – back to their home in Argentina.

If that wasn’t bad enough, it emerged that their 14-year-old son, who was sitting in the front passenger seat and playing a game on his phone, didn’t notice either.

I know a number of marriages where this could happen. I was in one of those once. I'm neither shocked,nor amused, just sad.
