(NewsCore) - Santa may use a sleigh but a driver in the far north of Norway found a more inventive way to transport his reindeer: he packed three in the back seat of his car and two in the trunk and drove off, The Local Norway reported.
None was wearing a seatbelt.
The Local said police were astonished to spot the antlered heads in the back seat of the Subaru Forester and then find the other two in the luggage compartment.
The unidentified driver claimed he had received clearance from the Norwegian Food Safety Authority to transport five of his reindeer from Karasjok to Børselv, a journey of some 62 miles (100 km).
"There are no limits to what people will get up to in traffic. I've stopped being surprised," Frank Ove Eidem, an inspector for the Norwegian Public Roads Administration, told the newspaper VG.
