And one more Yogi to start our seventh year

The final Yogi for 2016 goes to Chris Fawcett, who was smarter than the average father after building a realistic homemade speed camera to stop Stonehenge day-trippers hurtling through his village. He took matters into his own hands after more and more motorists began using local roads as a shortcut to the ancient attraction. Residents say the traffic in Shrewton, Wiltshire, got worse when a redesign of the Stonehenge visitors centre in 2013 saw a key road closed and sat navs started to divert drivers through the 30mph village. Mr Fawcett built a dummy camera from wood but it was burnt down by a mystery vandal. And he took the second down after threats of legal action from Wiltshire Council which said it was on their land and threatened him with legal action. But, undeterred, the 50-year-old has now made a tougher, steel box which even contains a video camera. Mr Fawcett has also attached it to a neighbour’s tree in his street so the council will find it harder to object to. And he said the desire to protect his village had made him want to build a better fake camera despite protests from the council – who he says have not done enough to tackle speeding in the village. We need more of those guys on this planet.
