Augmented Brake Lights   (+1)  [vote for, against]
A red LED text display capable of a few speech-to-text characters, activated by the brake.

Okay, your brake lights work. You seem to be using them a lot, though. That does NOT entertain me in the least and I wish you'd adjust your driving to minimize that to when you plan to stop.

How about this, since you're distracted and probably insinuated with some technology that affects your perception, or you're talking too much. A compromise is, install augmented brake lights. In your cabin is a text-to-speech receiver and there's a moderate sized (perhaps four inches in height) that displays a half-dozen or so characters of what is said when your brake pedal is depressed.

".. God yes ..", "What the ..." "You moth ..."

Even "Back the ..." or "Get off ..."

Lots of possibilities. Most could be covered by two four-letter words.

Alternated, a "loud speech reproducer" could allow the persistent display of what you shouted. That would be cool, too!

Would lead to a lot more road rage incidents. [+]
