Cardboard cut out cops 'Jim and Jemima' deployed in East Lothian to help combat speeding

The 'pop-up' police officers, named 'Jim and Jemima' by Dunbar and East Linton Community & Police Partnership, put up the cut outs in Tyninghame on Thursday.

The use of the 'pop up cops' to aid officers carrying out real time speed checks is a tool to deter speeding vehicles passing through the village.

In a statement shared on social media, police said: "It is anticipated that their use will remind drivers to slow down and stick to the speed limit.

"Local Community Officers will be conducting speed checks at various targeted areas in and around their ward area in the coming months."
