Joking aside, those signs can be much more informative than the cunt who put it there intended. Warning! A potentially very distracted driver is behind the wheel, pass quickly if you value your safety.

ETA: I don't know any first responders but I always thought they were trained to immediately look for victims, conscious or unconscious, when they arrive on scene.

Nah, they are trained to look for BoB stickers in the rear window, and if they don't see one they'll go back to the station.
Edit, Teresa, the snark wasn't directed at you btw.
BoB = Big Orange Book? I trained as a first responder back in '91; it was calles SOB, for Small Orange Book. Perhaps it has grown since I did that kind of work, 20+ years ago. I do not recall anything addressing babies on board. We were more focused on HazMat, though. But we'd sure look into any vehicles that had been involved, as well. Crazy not to.
