OK, something which I've wondered for a while; why do parent put
those "baby on board" signs in the back of their cars? What are
they supposed to achieve? "I was going to drive like a complete
maniac and hug your bumper, but since you've got a baby I'd better
drive sensibly." Can't see it happening myself... If there is
some reason for these, I assume that all these parents dutifuly
remove these signs from their cars when they're not transporting
their sprogs, but am I living in cloud-coockoo land again in believing
that?
Personally, the only reason I can see is some form of a signal to say "we've been able to procreate, look how good we are", but if you know any better, let me know. Update: I've had two emails saying the same thing; basically it's there for the emergency services in case the miss small children after a car accident. That said, there's no corresponding requirement for the label to be removed when there isn't a child in the vehicle. |
