He candidated for the last local elections in France but didn't campaign as he has no interest in being elected.
He took part in the debates and all but was trying to make it a show, and that turned out really awkward imo..
I believe that traffic cameras are designed to not blind you at night. At least in my neck of the woods they are. Meaning that at night the flash is mostly infrared with a small component of visible red light.
A person of few words, I see. While I do applaud your brevity, and I personally believe eloquence to be a superfluous self-gratifying exercise, sometimes bordering masturbation, I do fear that your monosyllabic response to be quite ambiguous.
Pray tell, to what are you saying "no"? Fear not my good person, as I do not request a short essay. But perhaps I could trouble you to expand your reply to include a few more syllables? Maybe even multiple words?
Speed camera. Those take picture when you're speeding so faking one can confuse drivers. I don't know if the cop got mad, looks like he just wants to check what's going on.

Well, some of his stuff anyway, I don't think all of it landed as well as this one

Feels like an enemy in Earthbound.

Cops are an enemy in earthbound

Well, yes, but a walking speed radar would probably fight alongside a cop, haha.

I don't understand what the costume is/why the cop got mad

Pretending to be one of those red light cameras with a flash. Don't know why cop thought slamming on the brakes was worth that.

Most traffic light flashes are bright where I am. Also, it's fully legal to do this camera costume thing at least in the US.

Cool. What makes you believe this video was shot in the US? The narrow street, the use of a compact MPV for policing, or that there's a sidewalk?

Are you living in one of the few places that isn't a surveillance state?

In space?
Warl0k3@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 33d
To be fair, I live in the US and had no idea either - all the ones around here are up on poles and are IR (so they don't use flash)
JetpackJackson@feddit.org · 1 pts · 31d
I've just never seen something (a speed camera) that looks like that
Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works · 3 pts · 31d
Yeah most of them don't have legs.
