Russian Police Employ Brad Pitt Cutout To Fight Speeding
How funny is this story.The Associated Press reports that Siberia has been having problems with speeding cars lately. So someone cleverly decided that maybe if they put a cardboard cutout of the beautiful Brad Pitt that people would slow down a little.
The campaign seems to be working. Omsk officials say accidents are down as star-struck drivers ease off the gas to gaze at the unusual image.
The paper, Argumenty i Fakty, quotes Dmitry Ziryanov, a local official who came up with the idea as saying Pitt is "kind of like a colleague for us."
I'm surprised no one has stolen the cutout yet. Who wouldn't want Brad Pitt in their home?
