Talking urinals to fight drunk driving
New Mexico is hoping to keep drunks off the road by lecturing them at the the urinal.
The state recently paid US$21 each for about 500 talking urinal-deodorizer cakes and put them in men's rooms in bars and restaurants. When a man steps up, the motion-sensitive plastic device says, in a woman's voice that is flirty, then stern: 'Hey, big guy. Having a few drinks? Think you had one too many? Then it's time to call a cab or call a sobre friend for a ride home. Remember, your future is in your hand.'
