A prankster was given a huge shock while stopping traffic with a stolen sign on a busy central city street.
The man was on Rundle Street in central Adelaide when he was spotted directing traffic with a large stop sign.
A taxi pulls up to the sign and slows down as it approaches, before the man holding it spins it around to read ‘slow’.

The tax then drives off, before a silver sedan approaches.
The man holding the sign seems ready to once again direct traffic before the car pulls over and he immediately puts the sign down.
It turns out the car was an undercover police vehicle, and an officer opens the door and steps out of the car.
The policeman speaks into his radio before escorting the young man off the street.

Another young man holding a sign but standing a few metres behind quickly realises a police officer has pulled up, and sprints to drop his sign on the footpath before taking off.
The video was posted to Instagram by ‘s**tadelaide’, and has had more than 35,000 views since it was posted on Wednesday.
A South Australia Police spokeswoman told Daily Mail Australia they had a ‘simple response’.
‘Don’t play on the roads.. it’s dangerous.’
The young man was given a caution and told to get off the road.
