PET PEEVES
Deary me I thought I was Mrs Calm and controlled until I started reading these posts and then I remembered! My very own top pet peeve - 'Baby on Board' stickers or 'Cheeky Monkey on board' or 'Princess on board' signs bobbing about in the back window of a citroen picasso or some other horrible car that the manufacturers think you actually want to drive, just beacuse you have bred.

These signs just make me want to vomit with their smugness and then ram into the car several times.

I know the safety police would say that if there was a crash the emergency services would know to look for the baby/monkey/princess and, if so all well and good, but what about the other 90% of the time when its just you and your huge vehicle wrapped round a tree?

You may think from this that I'm from the childless camp but I've actually done the deed three times and then crammed them all into the backseat of a mondeo which at least looks like a normal car and not a mobile playpen.

I've just remembered another nausea inducing sign 'mum-to-be on board' what is it with these signs - just because you've managed to start the reproduction process don't hit my car! argh - I think I need to lie and and relax (except that I can't I have to go and build a beatle with my 4 year old)

If I don't see a Baby on Board sticker
I immediately tailgate. One should only drive sensibly when the car in front contains a child under 5

I agree
although 'show dogs on board' has to be worse.

I agree!
But guess what? I've got one. My wife insists we have one. She has not yet given me one good reason why though.

All cars
should have signs saying 'Person on Board - don't kill me!'
