Pregnant Woman on Board stickers

OMG - D just put one in my car.  The neighbours gave it to him.  Sweet and all, but seriously, you think someone is going to make an extra effort to avoid rear-ending me just because I'm pregnant? 

I hate those stickers - same with the baby on board.  It just might fall off on the highway somewhere.

  • lol - and awww all at the same time! Just don't let it fall off near my car k?

     

  • I've often thought the same thing.

  • What if you were in a serious accident and were injured... wouldnt you want someone to know that a child is in your car ... Maybe the child is thrown from the car.. then they will know to search for the child?!

    I agree that just becasue it isnt there doesnt mean someone isnt going to be able to avoid rear ending you... but on the other side I guess there is positives too!

  • I like the Baby-on-Board ones, if I?m driving behind someone with one, I would understand why they might drive/turn a little slower. Maybe the kid is a light sleeper or its crying and they?re trying to sooth it. Yes although they should just pull over but we all know that?s not always an option!

     

    But the pregnant woman one? There is no excuse I can think of..LOL

    are we allowed to drive like idiots if we have the sign up?

     

    And to be honest I?ve never seen one either!

  • I saw a car in the Zellers' parking lot the other day that said "twins on board". it was a super small car (parked near me) and when I walked past I noticed there were no car seats - and I think "what crap". as I'm in my car getting ready to leave, I see the couple enter their car... she was very pregnant.

    I'm definitely not into these either. you aren't more important (and therefore should be avoided in an accident) bc youre pg or have kids in the car. and to answer Ash's Q... the car seats in the car should hold the kids way better than just our seatbelts... not to mention the ba'zillion toys laying around the car is a good indicator that kids are on board.

  • If its one of the suction cups, tell your DH that its a hazard if you get in an accident.  We had a baby on board one and when we got our car seat installed, the people at the clinic told us to take it down...it becomes a projectile in an accident.

  • For me, they are right up there with the suction cup Garfiled and pictures of Calvin peeing.
  • If they are going to have them for babies and pregnant ladies they need to have them for everything. Things like "I slept in" "Single lady on board - 416-555-5555" "Warning Teenager Driving" "The Leafs lost and I am pissed"

    This is hilarious...
    Seriously though... if you are going to advertise your situation or circumstances they why not all!

  • lol maybe the pregnant lady sticker is a warning that if you tailgate this car pregnant hormones may cause the driver to have an extreme reaction.
