Lithuania is using cardboard cutouts of policemen to control traffic. This is a stark contrast to the US method of having actual policemen doze along side the road.

Across the country, replacing the napping cops with cardboard cutouts that are just as effective has been met with rigid resistance from policeman's unions, who claim there is no substitute for the real thing. Not only does cardboard not have the look and feel of a real cop, but there is no chance of the cardboard officer being awakened by a craving for donuts and coffee. In the US, most of the cutouts would be stolen and end up on college dorm-room walls.
