re: How to make Punks slow down when driving through your neighborhood.

I've been having this issue too. Got a list running of vehicles to go find and roofing-nail just need to get off my arse and go do it.
Yard sign is a nice touch, but I don't think it'd do much. People who speed through neighborhoods typically don't care about the well-being of others. I wonder how much Action Advertising charges to make those? I'd get the speed limit, with "If you hit my child, I will gun your entire fricking family down, pets, babies, and anything else that breathes."

Just make sure they don't hit your kid because they're reading your sign

I don't have a dog that plays in the street, that's just what that particular sign states. This is known as an example.
I live in a quest neighborhood; kids play in the street, ride their bikes, scooters, and have fun on the streets. Sorry your kids are stuck to the TV being losers...

I have had a similar situation. I went down to the young mans house...stood in the street...so i wasn't on their property...and relayed to him how bad it would be to live the rest of your life knowing you killed a kid cause you were being stupid....and that it would be a real bad day for him if he did when dealing with ME..he got the point and now politely waves.
For the people who don't live in the neighborhood and speed when coming by (no outlet)....I usually yell profanities at them and tell them to slow the frick down....when they come back through I then politely wave as they creep by.
The yard sign looks cool....might look into that...we already asked about speedbumps and extra signs...to no avail.
frick the Govt.

Tell your son to stop playing in the street

Also, it amuses me how people claim people speed down their street non-stop at all hours during the day yet they continue to let their kids play in the streets.

How would the OT stop these young punks from hauling arse without getting put in jail
Posted on 4/14/14 at 12:11 pm to LSUsmartass
I've though about using a paintball gun to slow the cars down..... For LSUsmartass, I would use frozen paintballs.....
Posted on 4/14/14 at 12:12 pm to TexasTiger01
This is the OT...
use some AT mines!
I suggest some M-15's, but you could probably get a better deal on some TM-46's.
If you consider this, I might know a guy...

A few houses down from me a lady puts one of these signs in the middle of the street. seems to work. Any sign in a yard is not going to do anything. if they dont pay attention to the speed limit signs, theyre not going to care about a children at play sign. You need to put a physical obstruction in the street, so thye HAVE to slow down. Doubt youll get any resistance from other neighbors especially if they have kids playing outside also

People without kids never cease to amaze me at how fricking stupid they are. My son, for instance is two. He has already figured out not only how to open doors, but within the last month, how to unlock them. So now, we make sure to deadbolt them as well. He can drag chairs across a room, so I'm sure it's only a matter of time before he figures that out as well. (Also have an alarm with audible alerts when a door is opened, but lots of people don't)
But the bigger problem is when friends/relatives come to your house. All it takes is one person who forgets to double lock a door, and he is on the loose. Same goes for the 2 gates for the back yard, someone's kid doesn't latch them after they use it, and again, your child is on the loose. And this is at 2, you can't tell them shite. You can tell them you're taking them to Disney World if they maintain eye contact with you for 15 seconds, and if something bounces by, F it, he's gotta give chase. It's not that people allow children to play xyz, it's that shite happens no matter how you prepare, and no matter what you teach your children, a bad situation can be compounded by selfish assholes ignoring safety laws.

Great idea man!!!! I think something like this might work!!!

Go to goodwill and buy a stroller and a baby doll. When the car comes ripping down the street, push the stroller in front of the car. Guarantee the person won't speed again and he will have I go home and change his pants.

Then why did you say that it was "your sign"? To me, that sounds like you either want it or have it.

My kids get outside everyday thanks, but the older ones know to pay attention to what they're doing and the younger one is always supervised.
If you're so concerned maybe some better parenting is in order?

Used to do something similar to this. Was funny to watch. But to the OP, you could always tape their arse. Grab a 3-5 ft. piece of duct tape and place it sticky side up on the road where tires normally pass. Fold the ends over though and apply only the ends on the ground so it wont blow off in the wind but so that a passing vehicles tire will stick to it and take it with them. When the tire sucks it up, it will start flapping around in the wheel hub and it sounds a whole lot like a flat tire does. When they get out to check their tire, tell them to slow down and carry on haha Had fun with this trick in my youth.
