FTA: "What would happen if you saw a 3D illusion of a young girl chasing a ball across the street near a school?"

Get pissed off because I was cheated out of 70 points.

eddyatwork: Just wait until the first accident where someone is killed when they slam on the brakes and get rear-ended. Who pays out that liability claim?

The person in back, who was following too closely and not paying enough attention.

You know, for once here, I'm going to agree with eddy and say he has a point. The actions I take behind the wheel are going to be a tad different if I suddenly spot a small child infront of me, instead of say, a speed bump or a paper bag or something. Basically I'm going to do whatever I can to NOT hit it, even if it means wrecking my car or someone else.

Now of course, I'm at fault because I should have been paying attention and not speeding and seen it and slowed down, but people do occasionly get distracted. The point is, you don't expect to see something like this in the middle of the road, and it is going to cause someone to panic.

I see this ending poorly. Case history:
Fairfax County VA will park a police cruiser in a median for a week or two until commuters get used to seeing it and speed by without a second look. Then they put a speed trap in the same spot and collect fines hand over fist.

This will just anestitize people to the appearance of children in the road, eventually ending in the exact opposite effect of that intended.

snowflakes!

H31N0US: Long term effect will be little kids getting run over because people thought they were illusions.

Little kids move, decals don't.

Not if you nail their feet down.

Or freeze them with your freeze ray. Yeah, that would work too! Than they'd shatter into little pieces when the car hit them. Yeah, that's the way to go!
