Police in North Carolina made an unusual type of traffic stop last weekend.

What we know:

Officers from the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department were on patrol when they stopped two men driving down a city street on a couch.

The department posted a picture of the  vehicle  on their Facebook page, showing a two-seater love seat hoisted up on top of two electric scooters.

What they're saying:

Along with the picture, police posted a reminder for people to think about safety.  Ask yourself: Should this be on a road… with actual cars… will the sheer shock of seeing this on the road cause other drivers to lose focus and drive unsafely?  they asked.  If the answer feels even slightly like 'yes,' maybe rethink the ride.

What we don't know:

No word on if the  drivers  were licensed or ticketed.
