MELBOURNE, Dec. 27 (UPI) -- Police in Australia said a man photographed driving a vehicle with both of his legs outside the window has come forward and spoken to officers.

Victoria Police said the man, whose name was not released, came forward following a public plea for him to contact police after a photograph was published of him driving on a Melbourne freeway with his feet hanging out the driver's side window, The Brisbane Herald Sun reported Thursday.

Investigators had earlier said the man was identified from the pictures and officers would visit his home if he did not come forward.

Police did not say whether the man will face charges.
