Description:
On the 1st of September a new law came into effect in Paris. The speed limit in the capital was to fall from 50km/h to 30km/h. Distance, a running boutique store used this unique opportunity to get some attention.
Using professional athletes, they triggered the speed cameras and used the images by making a video to promote their store. The video became an overnight sensation and drew massive attention and traffic to the store.
