Overlay a normal car-wingmirror with a small LCD screen.

If you are driving too slowly an artificial tyrannosaurus rex reflection would appear, which would catch up with unless you outrun it.

Probably wouldn't be a big-hit with road-safety organisations, but a boon for Jurassic Park fans.

Possibly could be accompanied by dry-witted pithy Jeff Goldblum samples through the stereo.

       I think this is a clever & fun idea, which has been overlooked +

       This might work well with a downloadable clip of the mother-in-law chasing you with a rolling pin.

       Could be accompanied by roars emanating from the rear speakers.

       Would changing this to a Benny-Hill chase make this idea funnier ?   

       (With the music of course)

       Dinosaurs = universal motivators. Bun.

       I dunno... the front wings on my car are situated to the left and to the right of the bonnet.

       I'm sure that once the initial idea was marketed, there'd be hundreds of aftermarket "skins" available. Crazy Frog, anyone? =)

       one could also install a compact servo-powered agitator in the cup holder to vibrate beverages synchronously with the footsteps of said dinosaur/mother-in-law.
