"While it is not specifically illegal to publish to locations of booze buses, it is concerning that there are people who are willing promote drink driving in this manner," the paper quoted a police spokeswoman, as saying.

"It's not a joke and is a slap in the face to the hundreds of people whose lives are irrevocably affected by drink drivers in Victoria every year," she added.

Recent research has revealed that Facebook users may not be narcissistic as once thought.

'save Content to Read Later' Feature Being Launched By Facebook
A new feature that allows users to save content to read later was launched by social networking giant Facebook.

"It is not this page's intention to encourage drunk or drug driving, nor does it support it. However, we have the right to be informed and to know where they are. Choosing not to drink/drug drive because a booze bus is nearby could save someone's life, or at a minimum, get them out of a fine," the administrator added.
