Switzerland's first sex drive-in a success: ZurichZurich — Switzerland's first sex drive-in, which opened two months ago in a bid to take prostitution off Zurich's streets, has been a success, the city said Tuesday following an initial evaluation."After two months I can say that this guarded prostitution site is working," Michael Herzig, director of social services for sex workers in the city, told reporters.
Zurich opened the fenced-in site, which is only accessible by car, in an industrial sector on the outskirts of town in August to move sex workers out of the city centre and provide them with a safer working environment.
I have to say, I do approve of this solution if it prevents the town becoming a nuisance to others. Of course, I would prefer regulated brothels (I know these exist, as prostitution is legal in CH) but it's another way to keep punters and hookers from annoying local residents.
