Image Of The Week #41

Roughly translated as "Moving Eyes for the Prevention of Crime", the rather self-explanatory scheme has started recently around several areas of Tokyo, including where I live, Gotanda.

These stickers are placed on local vehicles - such as buses, taxis, and delivery vans - to deter crimes and loiterers around public places - especially schools and parks.

I'm not sure if they work, but they are very eerie-looking.
