QuoteA St-Laurent man's love of music is proving costly after he said he was given a $149 ticket for singing "Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now)" while driving.

On Sept. 27, Taoufik Moalla was on his way to get a bottle of water from Provigo. He was headed down St. Croix, cheerfully singing along to the 1990 C+C Music Factory hit, when he heard a police siren behind him.

"I was thinking they wanted to pass, but they called on the speaker 'Please go to the right side,'" said Moalla. "I stopped and four police came, two on each side, and checked the inside of the car. Then they asked me if I screamed. I said no, I was just singing."

I wonder if they would have gone easier on him if he had been singing "Okie from Muskogee." But, it did happen in Canada, so maybe that's not such a good idea.
