Time To Be Creative! Burma Shave Signs

I don't care if you're
A car or a trucker
Give me 3 feet when you pass me
You stupid.....

That's as far as I got. I'll think of a rhyme eventually and get back to you.

If you accept the fact that a car (thing) is different than a trucker (person) I can save you a couple of syllables.

in a car or truck
three feet please
you ...

This one doesn't rhyme but I still like it. It was painted on a retaining wall on a hairpin bend on a road leading up to Darjeeling in India

Better to be 15 minutes late in this world
Than 15 minutes early in the next

in a car or in a truck
three feet please
you ...

...hockey puck.

How about:
To peeps in the crosswalk
You should yield
Because these peeps
Don't come with a force field

Bonus points for visuals

Just thought of a shorter version of this:

Peeps in crosswalk
Drivers should yield
Because these peeps
Have no force field

Friday afternoon in the office... time for some limericks:


If you can't seem to drive on this block,
Without using your phone for a talk,
Then you're putting a stranger
In very grave danger
You could hit someone out for a walk.

If you're always in such a mad dash,
You could be the cause of a crash
If your foot's full of lead
Then a bike or a ped
becomes blood stained all over your dash.

A little girl wonders, "where's my dad?"
When she learns, she will break down and cry, sad,
Because dad's bike was hit
By an arrogant twit
Who thought he could drive with his iPad.

Here's more of a Burma shave meter:

Please hang up your phone
and don't send that text.
Have any idea
what's coming up next?
Pedestrian crossing
Is right up ahead
If you are distracted
Someone will be dead

Definitely leaning toward the morbid here. I suppose it's tough to be light-hearted while conveying the proper message though...

Morbid plays well if people are smiling and laughing when they deliver it.

Thanks Scoot! You are awesome.

Drop that phone
Eyes ahead
Can't get home
If you're dead

The short ones are better- quicker to create, quicker to read (remember we're competing with I phones, GPS, visual distractions, and short attention spans), and are halfway to Haiku.
