City Hires Mimes to Mock Bad Drivers
| October 11, 2011
Mimes! It’s a universally-acknowledged truism that you can never have too many mimes.

When drivers break the rules of driving safety, the mimes let the drivers know in a mime-ish way:
Dressed in clown-like outfits and white gloves took to the streets of the Sucre district this past week, the mimes wag their fingers at traffic violators and at pedestrians who streaked across busy avenues rather than waiting at crosswalks.
They found plenty to keep them busy in a city where motorcycle riders roar down sidewalks, buses drop passengers in the middle of busy streets and drivers treat red lights and speed limits as suggestions rather than orders.

Béliveau, now 56, has gone through 53 pairs of shoes.
