According to the BBC, an Egyptian bus driver submitted his wife’s urine for a mandatory drug test. When he maintained that the sample was his own, officials told him: ‘Congratulations, you’re pregnant’.
It turns out that the man’s wife was already two months pregnant when she provided him with the sample. Whoops!

A presenter on an Egyptian political talk show reckons that lessons can be learnt from this hysterical attempt of deception.
Tamer Amin told the BBC: "This story despite being funny has several lessons," Mr Amin says. "First, that drugs have become available to many and have become as common as cigarettes. This is a calamity."
The Egyptian transport authority will now have to provide a blood test as well as a urine sample.
Driving whilst under the influence of drugs and alcohol is considered a large-scale issue in Egypt, with over 12,000 people killed on the country’s roads every year.
