    I really like those stealth bike racks where they put a car shape on the road facing side so that the cars don’t get upset that they lost a potential parking spot.

    They’ll never see through this clever ruse;. Most cars have pretty poor eyesight; the only way they’ll figure it out is if they honk at it, and it doesn’t respond convincingly.

      Like a decoy to a duck, the problems only start when the car attempts to mate with it

        No 1 rule of the concrete jungle, when they’re in heat do not honk back even if it’d be *really * funny. And if they’re randy enough to be seeping fluid out of the exhaust pipe , . . . I pray for you.

      Just needs a sound-activated arm showing the middle finger to pop out of the fake window.
