    Also love the "baby on board" stickers.

    As if that is going to make tail-gaters think twice!

      Their purpose is to alert emergency services to the presence of a baby in the car, in the event of an accident where the adults might not be conscious and able to tell them. They are meant to be removable signs, displayed only when there is a baby on board. Permanent stickers just ruin the idea.

        I saw a car today with the drivers email address as a sticker in the back window. Something like [email protected]

        WTF is that about? A new craze?

          I've got one that says "Idiot driver onboard".

            Wouldn't the car seat or the nappy odor be a clue?
            The close proximity of the letters 'G' and 'T' are the reason I'll never again send an important email and end it with "Regards" ....

              A cousin of mine was in a nasty crash when he was about four. The rescue services removed the rest of the family (two dead, two alive) and didn't spot him at all. He was only found when they came to tow away the wreck and heard crying.

              I don't suppose a "baby on board" sign would have helped, but it shows you can miss a small child in a badly smashed up car.

                I always thought it was to tell drivers to be careful when driving behind this car because of the child - an idea I never quite understood.

                I can see they might help in an accident though.

                  I´m sure it was someone on this board who suggested a premium rate number for the "how´s my driving "sticker and then tearing around the M25 like a lunatic to generate income
                  How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think
