Nice paint job

May 7th, 2008 · No Comments

On the bus going into town a car went past with an unusual paint job, by unusual I mean hand painted monstrosity! The person obviously decided to use a four inch paint brush and some surplus paint he had laying around. The base color was turquoise with white and grayish wavy stripes painted all over the car. Nice!

Then I saw a hybrid car that had a rear license plate frame that had a red LED animated sign on it. Like stores have in their windows with messages scrolling along it, but small on the bottom of the frame.

Not sure what it said as it whizzed past, maybe something like “If you can read this you are too close.”

But I thought it could be distracting, someone could see it and speed up and get closer in an effort to read the message. I know I wanted to urge the bus driver to speed up so I could read it, “Dude hurry up I have to get the details for a blog post.”
