LED Wipers
Say something to the man who cut you up. | |
Put LEDs on car Windscreen wipers, (in the same method as fans that display text) so that when they move backwards and forwards they print messages on the screen - invisible to the driver but visible to the rest of the world...
Add a pad of commonly used phrases to the dashboard - ie. Hey you! - Hey
baby! - That space is mine - Cut me up and perish.. etc.

"redundant - a very similar idea already exists on the halfbakery. Any idea involving back windows of cars and LEDs spelling out messages is likely to earn this tag." [angel, Feb 25 2002]

Fair enough if pre-baked... do think its more similar to the fans I mentioned, than to the attached links, as the method to project these lights is already in place with the wipers moving... but fair enough anyhow. |

Never been cut up in the car (thank goodness), but as has been implied the premise is quasi-baked and HalfBaked. You can buy configurable LED displays for your car, though I know of none that are incorporated into the wipers. I doubt they move fast enough to get the job done. |

Recategorized. This one is at least slightly original, in that it works on the front instead of the back. |

Phoenix, just in case: 'cut up' is UK for 'cut off'. |

[StarChaser] Thanks, didn't know that. |

And I'm glad to see [jutta] took some of us up on the offer to assist. Anything to stay in the game. |

Winshield wipers do not move fast enough to do what you are thinking. |
