Cookie Monster gets caught going 60 miles per hour! The police warn the Muppet motorist
A person dressed as Cookie Monster has been caught speeding at 60mph.
The cookie-loving blue Muppet was away from his usual home on the hit children’s show Sesame Street and was instead spotted zooming along a German highway.
The bizarre photo – taken by a mobile roadside dispatcher in Dortmund, western Germany – shows a driver driving at 100 km/h in a 50 zone while dressed as Cookie Monster.
If the Muppet is ever caught, he faces a €40 fine.

German police believe the offense was so brazen that the Audi driver was deliberately caught wearing the costume on September 20 as a prank.
But the police found the stunt to be in poor taste.
Police spokesman Peter Bandermann said: ‘The fun of wearing a Muppet Show mask can quickly turn serious.
“It will not help the relatives of a murdered person if the person who did it tearfully regrets wearing a mask in court.”
