inter-car communication

not for the first time i've thought it would be so handy to have a screen on the top of my car (much like the cops do) that you could type messages to your fellow road users from the safety of the drivers seat (no useless arrows and RBT messages here).

you could have a list of programmed 'frequently used' messages, kinda like speed dial. Mine would be...

1. Where's my thank you wave A##HOLE?!?
2. Speed camera's do NOT mean you do 15k's under the speed limit!
3. Get the F#CK out of my way
4. Hi... can I please get in front of you *batts eye lashes* (it would obviously need moving pictures)
5. Hey you in the *insert car here* my number is 041. ... ... (and an edit function)

and of course you'd have to be able to create any message you want. along with a couple of the above, today alone i would have been able to use the following...

- creepy guy in the green ute... stop following me, i do NOT think you're cute!
^^ no joke! this guy would slow down so that he would be driving beside me, stop with 3 car lengths in front so that he could pose for me at the lights and then after i fell behind by not going through an orange light (SO not an accident) he pulled over into a side street further up until i came by and then was mouthing to me 'where are you going?'.... moving on

- you guys in the van behind me... the feathers hanging from your rearview mirror make me scared your going to scalp me and take it back to your elder, he who runs with the river, as a trophy. your freakin me out man!!!

and of course the early morning bitchy message

- hey you, 17 yr old blonde in the blue mazda that thinks she's pretty... i can see you're completely distracted by your own reflection, but if you don't start actually using that car for something like, oh i don't know... DRIVING as apposed to a device to be seen in (and possibly getting your tramp ass from pimp A to B) then i'm gonna....

and i can't actually think of a threat that would be fitting enough for her... although that probably wouldn't matter cos she would still be trying to sound the words out.

hmmm... we might have to work on a word limit for it to be effective. but still. a good idea for all you car manufacturers out there!!!

Absolutely brilliant idea!

I could've used one of those contraptions when I spotted a blonde shaving her pits at a set of lights one morning.
