Some good answers folks. Please keep them coming, I need cheering up atm.

Does remind me of a woman at work who had "Babe on board" sticker stuck to her rear window. I walked past her in the car park as she was climbing out of her car. She saw me looking at the sign, and before she could say anything I simply told her that I'd be the judge of that statement. Needless to say she never spoke to me again

They were invented for the emergency services to know to look for babies which can easily be lost in car crashes. However they are left in the car ALL the time which would leave the ES looking for a baby that wasn't there. Idiots.

I read it as "Caution, bad/distracted/smug driver at the wheel"

Worse than the 'Baby on Board' is the 'powered by fairydust' or Playboy stickers.

Normally they equate to a sturdy bird in a Ford Ka (usually surrounded by a pink interior). Should really read 'powered by lard'.

To prevent the above happening, why not just stick the child in the window, like those Garfield toys you got back in the 80's

@ the Ass Family. Saw one of those the other day on the back of a Audi Q7 (didn't say "Ass Family" though).

There is a guy at work who has one in a similar style that depicts a dinosaur eating the fish. Made me chuckle...
