Everywhere There's Signs »
On the way home tonight, I noticed a small truck that must have been completely absorbed by the semi trailer in front of it. I say this because they were about five feet away. On a freeway. At roughly 70 miles per hour. Good thing the semi didn't stop. The last thing those people saw would have been the signs.
Interestingly, right after that I saw a semi that was interested in a Chevy Blazer, about fifteen feet in front of it. Luckily for the occupants of the Blazer, they didn't need to stop suddenly. They would have had a rude surprise ahead.
And for the first time in a very long time, I saw a vehicle with a "Baby on Board" sign hanging in the window. In fact, the vehicle had at least two (right side and back). Maybe a third on the left, but I couldn't tell. What I don't get is why people spend their money on this kind of thing.
Is this like one of those stickers you put on your door in case of a fire, so that any rescue personnel will make sure they get the animals out of the house? So if you leave your kids in a parking lot, someone will know to get them out? Or are you supposed to drive more slowly when nearby one of these vehicles? Or let them pass because the driver is certainly a bit haggard from the worries of having a baby and may not be paying much attention?
I just don't know. Sounds a bit egotistical to me, in any case.
