Improv troupe rescues walking texters from themselves

摘要

The scene-making Improv Everywhere troupe has released a pair of videos in which it pokes fun at people who can't take their eyes off their texting devices even while navigating busy streets in New York City. Improv Everywhere's solution for safeguarding the dangerously oblivious: Seeing-eye People. The Improv Everywhere gag, done in collaboration with BuzzFeed, involves a supposed Department of Transportation pilot initiative in which orange-vested workers leash up others who walk and text on their smartphones.
