Do they get fries with that?

Zurich is opening its first sex drive-ins tomorrow — nine wooden booths where men can get some McLovin’ with hookers outside of the Swiss city’s downtown area.

The procedure for the so-called “sex boxes” is vaguely similar to fast-food service. Drivers pass a check-in gate and follow a marked route — then place their orders for one of 40 prostitutes and drive on to meet up in the boink booth.

Street signs show the way and display the rules: Adults must be alone, drive automobiles rather than bikes, and properly discard their used condoms.

Zurichers are so fed up with streetwalkers they voted last year to ban them from the city center and build steamy shake shacks in a far-off industrial zone.

Officials say the $2.2 million drive-in booths make the sex trade safer for both clients and call girls.
