Has anyone *not* had the old 'wouldn't it be great if there was an LED scrolling text bar at the bottom of your back windscreen you could use to convey your displeasure to other drivers' conversation? It tends to happen about 40% through your epic car journey, just before you decide that your need to increase your blood sugar is too great and you pull over to a service station.
This is a starting point. An alternative to the 'Baby on board' sign, you can stick this to your back windscreen and then use the remote to choose your signal. There's thanks, sorry and a smiley face - so far so good. There's 'back off' - slightly more aggressive, no? Then there's The Finger. And if you use this, you deserve to lose your wing mirrors. Weirdly, it's been ok'd by the Department of Transport.
What We Say
There are times when a simple middle finger will express your sentiments perfectly, however there are other times when a little device like the Drivemocion are incredibly useful.
Manufacturers Description
You can use them in your car too, to send a message to other road users. The Drivemocion is a battery powered, wirelessly controlled message sign that can be attached to the rear window of your car via the included suction cup. A remote control unit is kept in the front of the car (fixed to front window, dash, or laid in a storage compartment) to activate the messages by pressing one of its buttons.
You'll have five buttons to choose from, so you can smile or wink, or chose one of 3 text messages - 'thank you', 'sorry' and 'back off'. You can pick the one that best expresses your current feelings.
Drivemocion is not wired into the vehicle and is activated and controlled using the wireless remote.
Is the Drivemocion legal to use in the UK?
Yes! It has been verified by the Department of Transport.
Please Note
Requires 4 x AA batteries and 2 x AAA batteries which are not included.
