Authorities say life-sized cardboards of female police officers in miniskirts placed alongside roads have managed to slow down speeding drivers in several central Czech towns.
The mayor of the town of Mrakotin, Miroslav Pozar, said on Thursday drivers, including him, automatically slow down when they see such officers.
Pozar dismissed allegations this was because the drivers want to look at the officer's legs, rather than her uniform.
In nearby Myslotin, a local radio recently provided a hat and an anorak to help such officers get warm, but they were stolen in a day.
Others made off with the cardboard officer itself.
