Speed Bunnies

Speed bunnies are a set of galloping rabbits that occupy the central reservation of a motorway, travelling in both directions. Their purpose is to be matched in their regulated speed, but not overtaken.

Their action is much the same as the mechanical hare which is pursued in dumb futility by stampeding greyhounds at a race track.

Speed bunnies are friendly company, who will travel along happily beside you, but if you start overtaking them, have a sting in their tail.

Speeders are easily detected and photographed by the deceptively smart, camera equipped bunnies, who can also spray offending vehicles with a noxious, fly attracting odour.

Any car thus sprayed will slowly become enveloped in a ball of visibility reducing flies and brought safely to a gradual halt, also terminating a boy racer's typical taunt: "there's no flies on me"
