Talking urinals have been installed in US pubs as part of a campaign to cut down drink driving.
Set off by a motion sensor, the gadget delivers a message warning pub-goers about the perils of driving under the influence.
Customers are greeted with a message which begins: "Hey, listen up - that's right, I'm talking to you.
"Have you had a few drinks, maybe a few too many? Do yourself and everyone else a favour and call a cab."
The campaign was introduced in pubs in Michigan in a bid to cut down drink driving ahead of the Independence Day celebrations.
"We put a very serious message in a unique place, with a little humour," Anne Readett, from the Office of Highway Safety Planning, told WZZM.
The message ends with a friendly: "Oh, and by the way, don't forget to wash your hands."
