don't drive like a fucking idiot and drive 10 mph below the posted speed limit. that is actually more dangerous than at least going the speed limit you fucking idiot.

oh, and if you are getting passed by people on the right, GET THE FUCK OVER!
 
Do people still have those? They were one of my big peeves. You think I give a shit about your baby on board? I'm not gonna hit you because I don't want to damage my car, and because I'm driving, it means I have somewhere to be. I don't have the time to deal with an accident.

Agreed. A pair of truck nuts show more thought than those stickers.

You should probably find a little cleaner dictionary also.
 
Best is when they have one of those along with stick figure family. And it's always a huge SUV driving out of control because they're late for the soccer game. 😀
 
I always thought it had more to do with letting people know to look for a kid in the event of an accident, kinda like the "Tot Finder" stickers some fire departments once encouraged people to stick on their children's bedroom windows.
 
Agreed - its almost like some people want to use that as an excuse to drive like an ass

Not long ago I saw one of those...except it was just one woman in an SUV. No kids, no pets, spouse or otherwise. Seems pretty stupid to advertise that detail.

I thought a similar thing about the one with a man and woman, no kids but a dog and a big pile of cash.

I think a lot of the people who buy those stickers think that too. Personally, I think the firemen and policemen will consider that child seat to be a dead giveaway.

Driving under the limit is the least of my worries. Its when they slice across 3 lanes without looking and forget their signal. Dashing in front of me and slamming the brakes. Zipping through reds. Zipping through rights without looking or even slowing down a bit.
And a couple other stupid fucking things.
 
The people mentioned in this thread often make me wish I had a remote pellet gun and camera hooked up under my front bumper. I'd imagine slowly deflating a few tires would be pretty cathartic.
 
I usually look at those signs as "I'm a terrible driver, and will do dangerous and unpredictable things. I expect you to compensate for me."
 
There wasn't a sign on this chicks car, but it's related.

I was driving to work around 4:30PMish one day, so obviously there's going to be traffic on the road. I'm on a single lane road and the speed limit is 45, and most times I'll end up doing about 5 over on this stretch, there aren't many lights so there's a smooth flow of traffic.

Well I'm minding my own business and this lady in an Expedition pulls right up on my ass swerving slightly back and forth. Now, I'm getting pissed because tail-gating is my biggest driving pet peeve, and it isn't like I can go anywhere because there's a steady stream of cars in front of me.

So of course, I start to slow down on purpose and down-shift a gear so I don't have to tap on my brakes. At this point I'm doing about 40 now so I speed back up to keep up with traffic and she gets right on my ass again. Now at this point I'm just annoyed so I wait till there's some distance and give the brakes and solid tap, then hit the gas again so she doesn't rear-end me.

I guess she didn't like this because at the next light she pulls up beside me in a left turn lane and starts yelling at me "I have a baby in the car stop driving like an asshole!!!"

I just sat there, dumbfounded at what just transpired.

Now, you're probably thinking well maybe you were driving like an asshole. My ticket-less and accident-less history says otherwise, hell I've never even been pulled over after 11 years of driving. Maybe I'm just better and blending into the crowd I don't know but this bitch pissed me off.
 
They should just be replaced by "student driver". Serves the same purpose... may be even more effective.
