In recent days, a video has spread over the Internet in which you can see a traffic control on a Spanish highway… with a cardboard Civil Guard car!
A video published by the official Twitter account of Social Drive, the community of drivers that shares traffic information in real time, has shocked everyone due to a specific peculiarity.
And it is that the situation could seem normal: a traffic control on a highway, with the right lane of it cut off with a series of cones and a Civil Guard vehicle inside it. So far so good… but it turns out that the car is made of cardboard!
In fact, the video shows the alleged Alfa Romeo Stelvio from “La Meritorious” from behind, making it clear that it is nothing more than a cardboard silhouette fastened with supports and construction counterweights. Of course, with a system to simulate the emergency lights and a 3D effect printing that hits very well.

Cardboard cars are already used in other countries
Although original and striking, the measure of using fake cars to make drivers believe that there is control by the police or another traffic control body would not be something new in Spain.
In countries like United States, Japan and Turkey It is a commonly used technique that has contributed to dissuading drivers from driving with excessive speed in certain urban or extra-urban sections.
That yes, in Spain the technique of the car of the Civil Guard “of paste” is still not used. Or at least that’s what the body says, that has assured that it does not use this type of deception while opening an investigation to try to find the author of this video.
What is certain is that, whether the video is real or a montage, whoever made it has gone to great lengths to do so.
