Did you watch the crash video? The 'driver' gets his legs crushed, and 
the passenger submarines under the late-firing airbag.

This failure has been big news over here.

But clearly, having a bumper sticker will provide a modicum of 
strengthening; and this vehicle needs all it can get.

Or did I miss a rule that says these stickers can only go on the rear?

>>Though maybe a fender sticker would have to say something like
>>'Stratocaster' or 'Precision Bass'?

Maybe you need to be a player? I know someone, at least, on here who 
will 'get' this last remark :-)
