Disturbing LED Car Emoticon
By Alice Hill
RealTechNews
Flipping off bad drivers is one thing, but what if you could shake them to their very core with an alarming emoticon display in your back window?
The Driving LED Emoticon is a battery powered, wirelessly controlled message sign that can be attached to the rear window of your car via the included suction cup. A remote control unit is kept in the front of the car (fixed to front window, dash, or laid in a storage compartment) to activate the messages by pressing one of its buttons. It can display any one of five different messages - smiling face, frowning face, “Thanks”, “Back Off” and “Idiot”.
Price: $29.99

Joel says:
Can I write my own message?
That would be more interesting.

i can see this product failing in some countrys because it sort oflooks like a break light or a distraction to drivers.
other than that it seems like a great product if you feel like anoying some people with road rage.
just be sure that they cant get out of their car when you use it

Pretty neat idea but most drivers wouldn’t know what it means and if it’s directed at them. Assuming they look up from their bowl of cornflakes, that is.

If you could write your own message you can see how that would prompt instant road rage. But even seeing a smiley would freak me out.

That thing looks like it needs a priest and an exorcism.

How much would it be if I like to make my own custom LED controller so I can write my own message on it. I have to talk to www.lunaraccents.com/technology-programmable-LED-controller.html
but I can’t afford their price.
