    A third of calls to these numbers are to congratulate the driver on good driving.

    HTH

    Could it be because it's rubbish?

    Those 'P' plates wind me up. Surely if some tw@t is so sad at driving that they need to display 'P' plates, they shouldn't be driving???

    Oh and then there's the ' I have to drive a huge 4x4 because I am under 5ft tall and have an inferiority complex' fraternity

    I always thought it was to tell drivers to be careful when driving behind this car because of the child - an idea I never quite understood.

    I can see they might help in an accident though.

    A cousin of mine was in a nasty crash when he was about four. The rescue services removed the rest of the family (two dead, two alive) and didn't spot him at all. He was only found when they came to tow away the wreck and heard crying.

    I don't suppose a "baby on board" sign would have helped, but it shows you can miss a small child in a badly smashed up car.

    I've got one that says "Idiot driver onboard".

    I saw a car today with the drivers email address as a sticker in the back window. Something like [email protected]

    WTF is that about? A new craze?
