A drug-crazed man stripped naked and ran into a busy road, a court heard.
Dad-of-one Marcus Junior McPherson, 32, of Dearne Terrace, Scissett, stopped traffic in Lepton last May.
A driver saw a Vauxhall Astra stop in Rowley Lane, near the junction with Wakefield Road, and watched as McPherson ripped off all his clothes and ran out in front of a bus.
McPherson then ran off down the middle of Rowley Lane and the driver went to the car and removed the keys from the ignition.
Police were called and when officers arrived McPherson was laying in the road shouting and screaming.
He yelled: “Have you never seen a naked man before?”
McPherson appeared high on drugs and when an officer asked him what he had taken he said: “M-Cat, weed, hash, coke.”

An ambulance was called and McPherson was arrested on suspicion of drug-driving. He later attacked a police officer at Dewsbury Police Station.
McPherson was charged with driving while unfit through drugs and assaulting a police officer on May 4 last year.
He had pleaded not guilty but failed to turn up for his trial and was convicted in his absence.
The case was adjourned until Monday for a pre-sentence report.
District judge Michael Fanning, sitting at Kirklees Magistrates’ Court in Huddersfield, fined McPherson £200 for drug-driving and ordered him to pay £400 prosecution costs, £50 compensation to the police officer and a £20 court surcharge.
He was also banned from driving for two years.
Mr Alex Bozman, prosecuting, said the Astra was seen to stop in Rowley Lane at 9.20am and a driver saw McPherson get out and take all his clothes off, running out in front of a bus.
He then went down the middle of Rowley Lane and a driver took the keys to stop him driving off. McPherson was laying in the road shouting and screaming when police arrived. He claimed to have taken a mix of drugs.
An ambulance was called and McPherson was arrested. At Dewsbury Police Station a blood sample was taken and cannabis was found in his system.
Mr Bozman said McPherson’s behaviour became “erratic” at the police station and he charged at the cell door causing an officer to fall backwards. No injury was caused.
Mr Arshad Mahmood, for McPherson, told how his client had been diagnosed with a mental illness a month earlier and later the same month injured his hand jumping out of a window.
He had suffered hallucinations and had been admitted to a psychiatric ward.
Mr Mahmood said McPherson was now being treated and added: “He is on medication and it is nine or 10 months since his last episode but he is fearful something like this could happen at any time.”
McPherson claimed he wasn’t driving but missed his trial because of the hand injury.
