Traffic Cop Stop – What You Looking At?

21 April 2011 By Alan Straton

A good friend of MyPE spends a considerable amount of time on our roads. Being a consumate multitasker his Nikon D90 Digital Camera is always close at hand to photograph some of the crazy illegal moves by the vehicles in front of him. Naturally the animal known as Taxius Minbusus is the one that gravitates the most towards the camera – it being the most photogenic and agile of the animals and other hogs that we find on the road.

We will be bringing you an image a day of the animal road antics as seen through the lens of our undercover ‘Steve Irwin of Port Elizabeth Roads’. Each image will be published on weekdays at 13:00 – we reckon that 13:00 is slap bang in the middle of our hard working ‘Stomach in – Chest Out’ Traffic Force’s lunchtime so they would ALSO like a chance to see images of the ‘one that got away’ and maybe look out for serial transgressors!

Send your image/s to alan[at]mype.co.za or upload them direct here: MyPE Photographs. Please provide Date, Time and Place that the image was taken and also indicate if you would like to be properly accredited or you would prefer to be identified as a Non E Mouse.

Chief Cook, Bottle Washer and Broom Mechanic at MyPE
Passionate about Port Elizabeth and definitely NOT packing for Perth. Alan's ethos is epitomised in the words of Nelson Mandela; "I have fought against white domination and I have fought against black domination. I have cherished the idea of a democratic and free society. If need be, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die." See more articles by Alan.
