The driver told licensing chiefs he had assumed the position to inspect a wound after ‘cutting himself shaving’.

Because, of course, you get a fair clearer image of any area you might have cut shaving by squatting down by the roadside than you might by looking in the rear-view or wing mirrors, and the wing mirrors are obviously not visible from the driver's seat.
