The technology, which is being tested at Albuquerque International Sunport Airport in New Mexico, Tucson International Airport in Arizona and Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport in Crystal City, Virginia, alerts gate agents with an audible sound if a passenger tries to scan a ticket ahead of their assigned group.

    Can we do the same thing for people who don’t wash their hands after going to the bathroom? (I think there was a far side comic with that)

      There’s an Alamo Drafthouse in Austin that kinda does that with the bathroom.

      You walk up to a bay of sinks. To the left is a door to a room with urinals and to the right is a hallway with a bunch of toilets. It’s everybody’s bathroom, there’s not a separate men and women and the stall doors are actual doors that you can’t see through. Since everyone is coming out the same way passed the bay of sinks, everybody will know if you washed your hands or not.

      Edit: toilets are to the right, not left
