You have to be kidding - there are actually people who get paid to sit around and study things like this?

Put a whistle on them; a little-bitty whistle would warn the unsighted that a car was coming.

*Whew* that was tough! - Now where's my $10M for solving the "problem"?

While at a stint at a GM subsidiary in their support, here was a story relayed to me circa mid 90's....

Young Engrs fresh out of school had to attend a 2 day seminar on product liability. Upon exit many had the response, of "What the H%!! did I go to college, for this?"

What was being said was in the litigious society you have to think ahead and design for what you might get sued for. I can't prove it, but I think the Saturn Daytime Running Lights might have been a byproduct of this mentality.

So next time you want to go big three bashing about the lack of engineering thank the fully owned subsidiary of the Democratic Party, The American Trial Lawyers Association.

Hah! You threw it away by not obtaining the patent before revealing it to the world.

and more than once. This has been reported since the Toyota began sneaking around. With golf carts and other carnival rides there is plenty of noise.

My plan is to put a playing card in the spokes of the wheels.
