Baby On Board
Yuppie car rear-window signs proclaiming presence of ankle-biter in
car. The signs originated in 1985 as a way of informing rescue workers
that there was a baby in the vehicle (toddlers were apparently often
thrown some distance from car-wrecks and may go unnoticed). They were
also intended to generally alert other motorists of the presence of a
young 'un in the car (presumably in case they hadn't already heard the
crying and screaming).
Became in the 80s what the rear-window rainbow sticker was in the
late 70s (or the Christian 'fish' sticker). Like we cared why you
were such a shitty driver! |
