Cop computers interfere with Dunkin’ Donuts computers

by @ 8:20 pm. Filed under Weird Stuff

Oh the irony... When going through the drive-through of a Dunkin' Donuts, the New Hampshire police have to disable the radio modems on their mobile computers to avoid interfering with the store's sytem.

At one time, I thought that the idea about police eating lots of donuts was just a funny stereotype, but obviously, there is more to it than that! This article documents that the coppers like their donuts but apparently have trouble getting their order through due to a new computer system installed in the cars. It must be quite the conundrum when they are drooling for a donut but, because they are cops, cannot order them ;)
