The Week contest: Shrub cop

This week’s question: A police officer in New Jersey disguised himself as a roadside shrub to catch people texting or calling on handheld phones while driving—and snared 74 errant motorists in a six-hour shift. If Hollywood were to make a movie about this leaf-clad cop’s undercover operation, what would it be titled?
