Video: Urine trouble: remote-controlled shower installed to stop public urinating in alley Reportedly installed by two men outside their locksmith store in Allentown, Pennsylvania, the remote-controlled shower is designed to prevent members of the public from urinating in an adjoining alley. Those responsible for the sprinkler system also installed security cameras to record those caught in the act and have been uploading videos of the soakings to YouTube since May 2012. The clips, which have been viewed thousands of times online, were recently featured on US television and collated into a highlights reel that has gone viral.
