A horrified driver has been left shocked and disgusted after a used tampon was allegedly throw at him while he waited at a set of traffic lights.
The 22-year-old man named Lawson said he pulled up next to a black hatchback on the corner of Stenner and Ruthven Streets in Toowoomba, Queensland on Sunday afternoon when he became distracted by his radio.
'I was just sitting at a red light waiting for it to go green and as soon as the right arrow turned green someone just threw a used tampon at my face,' he told Daily Mail Australia.
'I tried to throw it out the window as fast as possible but I could tell it was quite used as blood was splattered all over the car.'

Lawson said he 'felt like throwing up' once he had realised what had happened.
The 22-year-old said he had 'absolutely no idea' why he was attacked and there was no prior incident to explain their behaviour.
'I pulled up to them - there was nothing I could have done,' he said.

Lawson reported the incident to police and while he didn't catch the number plate of the driver he hopes officers can use his dash cam footage to track them down.
After giving police a statement officers took swabs of the suspected bodily fluids which have been sent off for testing.
Lawson underwent testing for several sexually transmitted diseases at Kobi House medical centre on Sunday and will require more tests in the coming weeks.
