I've seen plenty of window stickers on cars, so I don't think these 'special' stickers would stand out any more. Additionally, the window stickers would be harder to see, especially if a car is driving at 55 mph. > > > > Ell"My break from class is over"myruh > > I guess they're hoping people will be more careful around them.

Ooh, how I hate those stupid "Baby on Board" signs. I mean, give me a BREAK. There are careful drivers and there are idiot drivers. Does anyone really think the latter group is going to see a little sign and suddenly think, "Oh my God! There's a cute little baby in that car! I'd better start driving according to law and common courtesy!" as they slow down, stop tailgating, and use their indicator properly before making a turn.
No, I like to think these signs are meant as a *warning* to other drivers. They mean, "Caution, this car is being driven by someone who is probably turning around every thirty seconds to look in the back seat and make cooing noises. Or have a rattle thrown at the back of their head as they approach a major intersection."
