British police are publicly shaming drunk drivers through Twitter

They’re cruising the streets for embarrassing tweets. It’s no secret that every year, the number of people driving under the influence of alcohol shoots up around Christmas. As part of its yearly crackdown, police in Sussex and Surrey are taking to Twitter to document the alcohol-related arrests they make on the road. Each snippet mentions where and when the motorist was pulled over, but also, more importantly, their name if they’re eventually charged. Those who were stopped last year aren’t getting off lightly either; officers are reportedly putting up posters to show exactly where motorists were caught over the limit.
