Ananova:

Policemen caught short at a shooting range have been given a special car to drive them to a loo - just 250 yards away.

Environmentalists in Salzburg, Austria, have banned them from taking a leak in the bushes at the remote range as it is part of a water purity area.

Now police chief Kurt Berger has put a patrol car on stand-by 24 hours a day to ferry officers to the nearest public lavatory.

"A man in uniform urinating in public in a water protection area - no one wants to see that," he said.
