A convicted felon in Britain who is nearing eligibility for parole is often sent to a minimum-security "open prison" for a few months to help him acclimatise to the outside world. One such prisoner absconded and, fearing pursuit, decided to change his appearance. He did this by discarding his most striking feature: his large, Kim Jong-Il-style glasses. Without them, however, he was blind as a bad, and so staggered up to the road and flagged down the first vehicle he could see coming... A police car whose occupants, recognising his chambray work shirt and denim pants to be the standard-issue uniform of prisoners at the local prison, promptly returned him. His spell of liberty lasted approximately 40 minutes.
