Driver Succeeds In Effort To Wear Pasta Strainer On License As Pastafarian

If this driver’s license appears a bit odd, it may be due to the fact that Niko Alm is wearing a pasta strainer. An atheist, Alm claimed that the pasta strainer was religious headgear as a pastafarian and member of the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster. It is not clear if he listed his weight as al dente.

Alm came up with the idea when he read that headgear was allowed in official pictures only for religious reasons. Police say that the only issue for them is that his face is fully visible. The Austrian police did however require him to obtain a doctor’s certificate that he was “psychologically fit” to drive.

Alm was cleared as perfectly sane.
