Allow me to be the first here to publicly admit it: I've had sex in my car. And it turns out I'm not alone either. A great many of us have engaged in four-on-the-floor fornication.

Confused.com, a U.K.-based insurance price comparison web site, surveyed 2,000 car owners recently to find out exactly what drivers are doing in their vehicles. Y'know, besides twiddling their thumbs while sitting in the soul-crushing bumper-to-bumper rush hour crawl. And thinking about having sex ...

1. Ate something

73 per cent of men and 76 per cent of women

2. Had an in-car argument

60 per cent of men and 63 per cent of women.

3. Had sex

47.5 per cent of men and 30 per cent of women. If you ever find yourself in Britain, it may be worth noting that the dirtiest drivers hail from bawdy Brighton - 68 per cent say they've enjoyed car-nal pleasure - while only 22 per cent of drivers in Worcester admit to doing the deed behind the wheel.

4. Had a nap

42 per cent of men and 29 per cent of women.

5. Flirted with another driver

24 per cent of men and 18 per cent of women

6. Dumped my boyfriend/girlfriend

10 per cent of men and 8 per cent of women

7. Been dumped

6 per cent of men and 5 per cent of women

The survey also revealed that men voted women who drive Audis as the sexiest (21 per cent) and women agreed, naming male Audi drivers as the top (31 per cent). Male BMW drivers finished second in sex appeal (25 per cent) for the women while 14 per cent of men thought women who drove Mini Coopers were hot.
