LOUISVILLE, Ky. - Landon Wilburn, 11, has a future as a cop — a traffic cop.
The youngster, who used to shout at speeders to slow down as they drove through the Stone Lakes subdivision in Louisville, now has taken matters into his own hands.
Dressed in a reflective vest, wearing a bicycle helmet and armed with an orange Hot Wheels brand radar gun, he points and records the actual speed of passing traffic.

If more kids start doing this, there will be more accidents, fights and road rage. God forbid any kid gets injured, that will be the ultimate tragedy here.
On a less serious note, some of my friends did this practical joke, where they took a hair-dryer (blow dryer), parked their car on a corner of a main road, rolled down the driver-side window and sat in the driver's seat by pointing the hair-dryer at the on-coming traffic. Speeds slowed down dramatically, as no one was sure whats going on or if its an unmarked police car. It was hilarious.
