Brad Pitt to stop traffic in Siberia
Brad Pitt is accustomed to stopping passers-by in their tracks. The Hollywood heartthrob’s next job is slowing traffic in Siberia - or so Russian traffic police hope.
A Russian newspaper reports that cardboard cut-outs of Pitt dressed as a traffic cop have been placed by the most dangerous intersections in the city of Omsk.
It is the latest move by authorities in their endless battle against speeding. Traffic accidents in Russia are among the highest in Europe.
