Drivemocion = Very Lame
For years, I (and I’m sure many other people) have dreamed of an LED billboard on the back of my car, or the front, to express what I really mean to other drivers. Only things like “thanks for letting me in” or “you’re an excellent driver,” of course. Never anything bad, I promise.
So, when I saw the “Drivemocion LED signs for cars” headline on Gizmodo, I got a bit excited. Of course, it was for no good reason. I had conveniently missed the “Emoticons” precursor to the headline. Apparently all this sign does is display one of 5 emoticons depending on what you input on your dashboard-mounted cntroller. Seriously, if I want to let some driver in Boston know that his/her tailgating is not appreciated, flashing a sad-face through my back window is just going to encourage that behavior.
