Easter Bunny a part of the police operations!

Kudos to the Nanaimo police for recently coming up with a creative way to catch drivers using their cell phones. According to news reports, they were using an Easter Bunny for their traffic sting!

Yeah, apparently, on Good Friday, they had a sergeant dressed up as a giant Easter Bunny and standing at several intersections known for having a lot of accidents. His job was to spot violations and radio ahead to officers waiting down the road! You might think people were upset about the way the police went about it, but apparently, quite a few drivers waved, honked their horns, and even approached the Bunny for photos once they realized it was part of a police undercover assignment!

A pretty creative method for an undercover sting, so kudos to the Nanaimo police for that.

PS - Guess what the "Bunny" got as a reward afterward?
