Police working fast food drive-thru windows
Categories: Nutrition & Supplements
I heard it on the radio yesterday, the news flash revealing that some police officers in Canada are parking themselves at fast-food drive-thru windows in order to catch drunk drivers. Why go fast-food? Because law enforcement officials kept hearing from drive-thru employees, "You should be here late at night." And because who doesn't like to eat after consuming too much alcohol?
Project WULF -- stands for "would you like fries?" -- puts cops right in the drive-thru booths where they can pick up on slurred speech and can sniff out the smell of liquor. When suspicions mount, the observing officer advises a second officer who stops the vehicle as it departs.
Already, a number of impaired-driving charges and roadside suspensions have been issued as a result of Project WULF. But does this make it a good venture? One of my morning radio co-hosts says it's a great thing. Getting drunk drivers off the road is critical, he says. His partner says it's totally unfair, a form of entrapment even. What do you think?

Sounds like a fantastic idea. I worked fast food in college and used to dread working late shifts because of the drunks. They would curse at us, throw things, and just generally act obnoxious. I say go get 'em!

This is a great idea, in my opinion...It sounds unfair to some people, but just think of how many people drive drunk and could get yourself your family/friends killed. They should REALLY do this in Hollywood to all those celebrities that go to clubs then go to fast food places...to think, Britney Spears will actually be off the road then...thank you!!!!
