    A sticker for tailgaters compo

    I propose a competition for best sticker to deterr tailgaters. I noticed that tailgating is one of pet hates in the Cars and Bikes section. So how about we design some stickers, with the winning design being sold in the hexus online store (i am happy to donate storespace from my shops too) so that we can hit back at the tailgaters.

    Feel free to post other peoples ideas too, but only original ideas can take part in the actual competition, as cafepress has a policy on copyrighted materials being sold through their stores.

    I'll start with:

    "If you can read this then you can read, but at this speed you probably shouldn't"

    I am gonna try to think of something actually funny.

    Lol.

    I keep thinking that it must account for people being behind you at the lights and not irritate them.

    How about a sticker in mirror writing to stick to the front of your car that tells knobheads to get out of the overtaking lane when they aren't overtaking? Much better idea IMO!

    I wouldn't have a sticker on my car... they look awful!!!

    But like Jiff lemon.... if someone was tailgating me.... i'd slow right down and annoy the hell out of them
    Then when they goto overtake me, drop a cog and floor it

    eh???
    How's that work then?

    Surely if you drop a cog, your gearbox is broken

    Or do you mean drop a sprog? Sure that might slow em down a bit as they bounce over it

    Well, I mean drop a cog means either:-
    a) Ya gearbox is broken
    b) you intend to drop the engine into the rev band below and pull away.

    I thought as you were talking about the megane, that answer b was out of the window
