To hate "baby on board" signs?

Before I start, please no one try and spread bollocks about the energy services. Here's why:

  1. So I don't have a sign, you're still not going to look for my child, even though I have car seat there?
  1. Yes people say they're suppose to be removed when a child isn't present, however,
99% of people leave them on so that already raises a red flag.

To me, they just translate to "pretentious twat on board".
Don't even get me started on "princess on board". If I had a anger issues, I'd personally ram into the back of that car.

What's your take?

I've noticed a lot of drivers who have them driving appallingly themselves which has contributed to my recent irritation about them.
Most recent one - I stalled the car at a junction (I'm a learner driver) and the impatient twat behind me immediately beeped their horn and then overtook me - at the junction. Which is dangerous and illegal I believe.
But it's ok because they had a Baby On Board sign so they can drive however they like but we must be respectful and careful around them Angry

I shouldn't judge a load of people with them based on the crap and dangerous drivers with them but I do see them as entirely pointless and their presence in the car is sometimes ironic when the owner of the car is a bad and inconsiderate driver.

I can see you'd want the reassurance and enjoy being with DC2

Yanbu, I don't like those signs (particularly the little prince/princess ones, or those with the child's face printed on it).
