"'Who’s Your Daddy" Truck Offers DNA On-the-Go - as part of the news series by GeoBeats.

DNA tests typically involved going to a clinic but now if you are in New York City, there's an easier way.

Dubbed ‘Who’s Your Daddy’, the mobile vehicle is going through the city street offering DNA tests. The driver told ABC News, “The RV is set up to be a drug testing clinic and a DNA testing clinic. It’s essentially a mobile office so while we’re working, people will walk up and ask questions and sometimes even take a test right on board."

Pedestrians can also flag down or motion to the driver to pull over and then begin the process. The tests cost between $299 and $575, with results available within several days.

In recent years paternity inquires have been on the rise. A DNA tests retailer in Utah conducted a poll, revealing that 10% of women and 12% of men had been in a situation where determining paternity was “appropriate”. One in five of the participants claimed they knew someone who needed a test to determine paternity.
