To be honest, those baby on board stickers are pretty dumb. Nobody goes "This car doesn't have a baby on board, awesome, now I can break check them like a maniac".

    Hilariously, that's not the point. I definitely thought that too, until I learned that it's actually so first responders see the sticker, and know to look for a baby when the driver might not be in condition to inform them.

    Kinda crazy to think of how many misconceptions we're all under.

    First responders always check for babies even without stickers.

    Because plenty of people need to transport babies that aren't their legal guardian and thus don't have a permanent sticker on theit car. Like family members.

    Those stickers are just for people who are so proud they shat out a baby, they feel compelled to tell the entire world.

    I want one so that it explains why I'm driving slow. Maybe tailgaters would exhibit a little less road rage.

    Also, I want it to flip around to say "Baby is NOT on board" so when I want to drive like an asshole they know I mean business.
