Time Out by Simon_Doyle

Driving into realbuzz HQ this morning and came across evidence that White Van Man actually does have a sense of humour.

Usually you are getting cut up by one of these bastards - and to be fair a Citroen Berlingo doesn't quite fall into full White Van man status - but for once I was being cut in shreds of laughter by this little beauty of sign.

 

Usually there's a sign in the back of most van saying "No tools left in this vehicle overnight" which always has me thinking "Oh, so Mr Burglar the expensive tools are in the house outside which this vehicle is parked then." If that's not an open invitation to some light-fingered swine to break in, I don't know what is. Why advertise the fact that you have expensive tools in the first place?

While I'm on the subject of signs in vehicles: why have a sign saying '"Child On Board"? Does this mean every driver is going to make a conscious decision to try that bit harder NOT to collide with this vehicle all because it has a nice sticker in the back.

Maybe our Kirstie could have avoided some swine writing off her car after they whacked into the back of it when it was parked in the road - if she had only had the foresight to place a sticker in the back saying "Small Kirstie On Board." 

For your sport over the next few days, I want you to be vigilant and keep your eye out for the best or most ridiculous sign in the back of a vehicle and let us know what it says. If you can manage to get a pic of it, even better. Happy spotting.
