Police is Switzerland have hired an actor wearing angel’s wings (see photo) to try to slow down speeding motorists.
The ‘guardian angel' at work, as pictured in Britain’s Daily Mail newspaper.
The so-called ‘guardian angel’ flaps his wings at vehicles which seem to be exceeding speed limits in the western Switzerland state of Fribourg.
Hired as part of a road safety campaign, the actor works 20 hours a week, appearing beside various highways.
‘The idea is to provide a sort of concrete protection, to have a real angel telling drivers to be responsible,’ a Fribourg police spokesman, said.
‘To have a physical presence like that makes the message more visible, and it’s out of the ordinary.’
