To Bad Drivers Who Use Their Vehicles as Marketing Tools:
By kellirhea in Quixotic Quicksand

If you’re going to advertise your business on your vehicle, don’t drive like a bat out of Hades.

What kind of message are you sending to your potential customers if you serve from lane to lane without looking in your mirrors or signaling? What are you telling people about yourself if you cut them off or tailgate them?

Make a choice: Either remove your business’s name / URL / phone number from your vehicle and drive as though you’re having a perpetual seizure, or leave your advertisement on your vehicle and drive as though everyone around you is your dear, old grandmother.

You don’t want to see yourself nominated for a Darwin Award, do you? Or even worse, you don’t want to anger the wrong person, e.g., a computer hacker or an armed person who’s had a VERY bad day, do you?

Thank you.

PS. I could have published the name of the Web site that belongs to the person who inspired this tirade but because I am a nice person (cough), I decided to cut her some slack…This time.
