For safe Riga
This is a strange late 1980s/early 1990s mural on Tallinas street in Riga. It says "Riga" at the top but it's a social ad for police. It says: "in case of emergency, call..." and "install anti-theft system on your cars". Photo by (c) Arnis Balcus
There are stilized letters VAI above name Rīga, 'cause the Traffic police (Valsts Autoinspekcija) was there - Tallinas 86 in Soviet and early post'Soviet times.
