To not get all these signs people put on their rear windows

[Summerbreezing]

Little Princess on Board
Twins on Board
Grandkids on Board
Yummy Mummy on Board

Who cares? Just drive the bloody car carefully. It's no one's business who's 'on board'.

They should really say something like 'limited rear window visibility due to this stupid sign'

Can't find it now, but there was a website selling 'PFB on board' signs. I think that's the only one I'd consider getting

Rally I have a feeling its mumsnet merchandise

I think they're stupid, as they block out part of your rear window, and I assume that the person who has it isn't very clever. This may or may not be the case, but I just can't help myself; I judge.

What really galls me is when some knob speeds out past you with a baby on board sticker on display. So we've all to drive extra carefully around you, but you can drive like a maniac?

I hate all those signs and, usually, the decals people stick to their cars (they rarely look any good imo) and the eyelashes on headlights are just naff.

A couple of times on my drive home from work I have seen a dark coloured saloon with a very square boot - it's de-badged so I don't know what car it is, not being into cars. On the boot is what I presume is a very expensive painted image of a bound and gagged man. It is only visible at certain angles/in certain light and your first thought is 'my god there's a bloke tied up in the boot', even though logically there isn't. It is, quite frankly, creepy as hell.

Also bloody dangerous as it could really distract the driver behind.

It's the 'powered by fairy dust' stickers that make me want to get stabby. have a DC and grown up you daft bint

The only decal I've seen that I liked was on the back of a neighbour's yellow Panda. It had a couple of yellow paw-prints on the back window, with corresponding black marks below on the paintwork where the paint "had been lifted off". I really liked it - cute, fun & not too silly

They serve no practical purpose. Fire brigade pay no attention to them. They search the vehicle in exactly the same way regardless of whether you have a pwecious lil' man on board sticker on the rear window or not.

Driver (there is always a driver)

Rear seat passenger

Front seat passanger.

I don't know if it's made its way across the pond yet, but in the US (at least my region of it) we are starting to see memorial decals on the rear windows of cars, something long the lines of "In loving memory of Uncle Billy Bob, 1930-2014. Forever in our hearts." Each to his own and all that, but I do find this a bit bizarre.

I saw one in Edinburgh the other week.i did a rapid double take.

It was attached to a bashed about vw golf. I'm sure whoever had etched this tribute to this automotive abomination thought 'its whst he would have wanted' memoralised on a near MOT failure.

That's really funny. Here they are usually on brand new behemoth SUVs. And I first thought that they were because Uncle Billy Bob had maybe bequeathed them the car (or the money to buy the car) but now you see them for pets as well. "Bubba, beloved bird dog. Forever in our hearts."

You know, if an accident is so severe that no child/ child's car seat is visible in the car then the back windscreen with its precious little sticker are unlikely to be intact either.

I saw one that read 'mum to be onboard'...
Also cars with fake eyelashes -why oh why?

This is the one I need.

Some twat I saw the other day had 'my cars powered by fairy dust' on a pink sticker with tinker bell on it.

She was in her 40's.

Your car is powered by fucking petrol - not fairy dust.

Yes with concerns about climate change and rising petrol prices, fairy dust powered cars could be the way forward. I don't know why engineers are dicking around with hybrid and electric cars for.

Csn anyone quote for converting the maital corolla to fairy dust power?

Those of you who hope that someone will leave more space for you to get your child out of the car just because you have a sticker in the window - think again. I have a wheelchair sticker in the back of my car which asks people to leave room for the wheelchair ramp - there must be an awful lot of drivers out there who need glasses or maybe they are just pig ignorant

So true. Hopefully I could then fly through traffic.

Still wouldn't have the wanky sight though.

I'm still trying to get my head around the fact that some people actually think they can stick a 'Precious Princess on board' sticker on their rear window and then turn around while driving to hand their kids biscuits or break up rows because 'well I told you my driving might be a bit distracted and dangerous so it's not my fault that I've caused a four car pile up while Kyle and Kyletta were fighting over who got the last jammie dodger'.

There's an entire 'fairy dust' range in Halfords, part of the reason I hate the stuff so much. So unoriginal. Gear knob anyone?

And the eyelashes. Why? Just why? I'm trying to remind myself that the world would be a very boring place if we all had the same taste, but I just can't get my head around this stuff. It is nice seeing people take pride in their cars though, especially when you know it's probably the driver's first motor and pride and joy.

They're there to alert the emergency services that there is a child or baby in the car so for that reason they're a good idea.
All the "princess on board" etc ones that aren't even yellow are fucking stupid though

I hate the eyelashes shit on cars. Also it will mark the usually young female driver out to any passing weirdo. I'm sure there was a MNetter a year or two ago who said her daughter was targeted because someone followed her girly car. Or have I just imagined another Snopes one?

Isn't the idea so you know there's a (spoilt brat) child so you don't ram it?

Tbh I'd ram one for having it.... But that's just my opinion.
