I like that one.

Since most of the offenders obviously can't read posted signs, this one could be
interesting to put up.

I think if I saw that sign I'd trim up and plow even more. I might even honk the horn a little.

I do not flash the sign if children are on board. It says "slow down" on the other side. I have limits.

+1

I've been tempted to get a sign like that for the car. One that reads "Get off the phone" with "Asshole" on the flipside.

I've seen "Hang up and drive!" for the people with phones stuck to their ears.

Waving that sign with "Watch your wake, @sshole" will devolve into a messy situation eventually.

Only if you're stuck boating in an area with idiots with propensity toward violence. Fortunately most places don't have that much insanity going on.
