Dennis Mochu Kamau uses Red, Yellow Cards to guide Vehicles at World Cup.

A traffic officer caught the attention of many at the World Cup in Doha, Qatar after he devised a new way to control traffic.

He uses red and yellow cards while guiding vehicles at the World Cup, mostly those on the wrong.

Dennis Mochu Kamau said this aims at proving that the soccer language is universal.

"I devised this new way to stop arguing with people. Every time you get them, they start saying they are in a hurry and maybe they are tired," he said.

"But now I decided to come up with a yellow card and red card idea. When the person sees a red card they are like oh no, don't give me a red card and they go."

He said it makes him happy seeing that he only has to lift a card which makes his job easy.

"It makes people happy, It makes my job easier because now I don't have to interact with people or argue with them," he said.

He said when he shows a red card to vehicles, they immediately know they are in the wrong and move without arguing.

"The moment I show a red card, as you can see they just move immediately they don't argue, they move away smiling," he said.

People walking around the pavement were wowed at how the officer was doing it so easily.

The officer is also enjoying himself as he is seen dancing as he lifts the cards.

In football, a red card is shown by a referee to signify that a player must be sent off while a yellow card indicates that a player has been officially cautioned.
