We first profiled Iceland’s Reykjavik Police Department Instagram (@logreglan) in September 2014. Since then they have continued to entertain their 124,000+ followers while keeping the streets of Iceland’s capital safe.
According to the BBC, Iceland has one of the lowest violent crime rates in the world. Police are unarmed, ‘hard drugs’ usage is low and tensions between economic classes is virtually non-existent. [source]
