Haha, I almost titled the post this! I wasn’t sure if enough people would get the reference.
You were that close to becoming the Simpson Maneuver.
Has anyone ever seen a baby on board sticker and thought “well I was going to drive recklessly, but I better not”
Nah, but I do think of bonus points for crashing into them.
Apparently it’s more to let paramedics know in case of crash that finding and saving baby becomes priority #1. I know this from a 2011 meme so not sure how accurate the information is.
Guess that makes sense. Still not putting a stick person family on my car.
I’d be willing to bet paramedics and other first responders have actual training as to how an accident scene should be triaged, and don’t depend on which cutesy decorations the occupants may or may not have.
Hey what’s that tiny seat with extra padding in the backseat for? Meh, no sticker, whatever.
Single adult life hack: get baby on board sticker, always get first attention from the paramedics when you DUI
Ah you beat me to it. I was taught this an my child seat training course at work, it’s true.
This sounded like an SCP to me, probably because of the train in Abiotic Factor
years ago i was in a car with a friend at night and we were behind this giant truck that had a warning written on it. it said “ATTENTION - EGGS INSIDE”
like motherfucker you pay attention what do i care‽ i found it so funny i could barely see through tears in my eyes
When the “baby on board” sticker is a little faded and beat up you know the kid is at least two years old now and the car is safe to ram ‘em.
Pop quiz, hotshot!
What are you doing in the bathroom, Keanu? I thought you were driving a bus???
Shoot the hostage.
So when I see those baby on board signs, I give them a pass when they are driving slow or doing silly things at the red light(like pumping their brakes so the car is moving so the baby doesn’t wake up).
Boring fact for the day. The real reason for the baby on board sign isn’t for other drivers, it’s so if there’s an accident, the emergency services will prioritise the cars with the sign. So if you want priority in an accident, you know what to do.
TIL. Thanks man.
I want to put this on my car
It’s a real sticker. I want it too, but, knowing the drivers in my area they would take it literally.
CANS. CANS. There was no baby it was full of cans!
