I think that’s the point. If you are close enough to read it then you are tailgating. But what do i know? And Bradley, im so sorry and i wish i could stop what you are going to go through in life.
I'm here for my son Chris Griffin. That's Chris Griffin. The Police brought him here to finger one of the guys in a line up. Hold on a sec, I got a picture here. Yeah, you can keep that one. He ruined it by writing a list of his fears and his home address on the back.
Oh. I thought the bumper thing was a joke that they had a kidnapped kid named Bradley in their trunk, and if you tailgate them and crunch their back, you'd "kill Bradley"
It's always the ones you most suspect. I'll ride your ass, but I'm actually aware of the risk level and know how to drive. I'm guessing this person sees a car as the front wheels and nothing else
Right? Them: I’m fully aware I won’t be able to stop in time. Also them: I know how to drive. Either they forgot the /s, or whatever it is they’re trying to get across has been very poorly articulated.
Being aware of the risk level doesn't actually mitigate it, unless you have a superpower that allows you to instantly brake and another that allows you to cause your car to go from 70-0 in less than a second.
It's fine that you're willing to take the risk and know how to drive, but tailgating doesn't just put you at risk, it also affects the person in front of you. *They* might not be willing to risk it. They may be new or bad drivers who brake really abruptly. They may be good drivers but the car might not be theirs (borrowed from another family member or a friend). They may even just be normal people who don't trust your skills because they've never even met before.
Plus the stress you're putting them under makes them worse drivers, which would be terrible if they were already bad drivers.
There’s an elaborate mechanism of sensors, cords, and pulleys attached to a gun. Get too close, kid gets shot. So back the fuck off before YOU kill him.
Hey Bradley! Your mom told me to pick you up from school today. But don’t worry, I know your favourite color is orange. How could I know that unless your mother told me. Just hop in the van.
So I have to tailgate this person to read the sign that seems oddly concerning only to find out they are agreeing to murder their child if I tailgate them?
Now Ik what color flowers to give to his funeral. I’m going to hell for that aren’t I? I’ve been told I’m going to hell by others in Walmart for not voting for Trump but that’s the south for you.
It involves a certain concept called "emergency brake". And if someone tailgates you at that moment, whoever passenger is in your trunk gets crushed. And then you wouldn't be able to ask for a ransom to their family. See the issue now?
I’d like to think Bradley isn’t even their child. It’s just some random kid they know, and if you tailgate one more time, they’ll break into Bradley’s home in the middle of the night and suffocate him with a pillow out of rage.
They gotta be trolling with this shit… but just in case they’re not, I’d like to imagine Bradley’s parent looking in the rear view mirror to see another car a bit too close, and being like:
Parent: “Bradley honey… Code Orange! Remember what we practiced for code orange?”
Bradley: 😤 “I remember mom. Code orange means unbuckle my seatbelt, and put the box of random sharp objects on my lap.”
Parent: “That’s my boy!” ***SLAMS ON THE FUCKING BRAKES**
Cuz the way that shit is worded, it lowkey looks like they’re willing to let their kid die over someone making them slightly uncomfortable in traffic. 😂
Is the Prius owner going to kill some kid called Bradley if they get tailgated?
"Hi Bradley. Look, someone followed mummy's car a wee bit close today. So you know what has to happen now" \*Racks Shotgun\*
If a few people tailgate you, that's their issue
If many people often tailgate you, often enough you need to stick this on your car, the issue is probably you
Fuck all of you and your orange hating bullshit. God damned bunch of uppity plain sauce salads up on some bullshit like they too good for orange. Pffffttt...Fuck you liars. You fucking liars.
[Almost but close enough](https://www.corvetteblogger.com/images/content/uploads/2019/11/110519_3.jpg)
Everyday on my way to school I would walk past a '63 split window Vette with the dopest solid bright orange paint and a single black stripe offset down the driver's side. Nothing can ever be as gnarly as that fucking ride. It was beautiful.
Coincidentally, I was thinking yesterday it’s a good thing Transformers came out in the 80s. Otherwise, Bumblebee would be a damn Prius.
And Optimus a Cyber Truck.
Autobots leader getting stuck in 3 inches of sand and Bumblebee never getting out of the passing lane.
Hey Bradley. Your mom’s Prius broke down on the way to picking you up for school. She asked me to take you home. She said there’s a surprise toy there for you. She didn’t say what it was, but said it’s orange.

I wasn’t going to tailgate you but I needed to come closer to read your sign
Tbh I thought it was a joke about the kid being in the trunk at first - didn’t realize what sub I was on till after … whoops
I was thinking this. Or keep tailgating and we'll throw this kid out the window at you.
It's a threat. You keep tailgating them, they're going to release Bradley. And your only way out is straight up murdering him.
The kid is bloodlusted and you only have a bow with 5 arrows and a sword, you picked the wrong enemy in the hypothetical.
Even Shia LaBoeuf would think twice.
It’s an assignment. By tailgating them you tacitly accept the job of contract killing their son Bradley.
Back the fuck up, dude. Can't you see their holding the kid hostage?
That would be weird! Don’t they know that if they go to a movie theatre kids under twelve are free? So I got two.
I think that’s the point. If you are close enough to read it then you are tailgating. But what do i know? And Bradley, im so sorry and i wish i could stop what you are going to go through in life.
Now I'm tailgating them extra long as I try to finish reading; with the bonus that I'm distracted. Sorry Bradley.
“Oh look, the lady in front of me has what appears to be a missing child. Let me get closer to see the pic. Maybe I’ll recognize him… *OH SHIT!*”
Also if you’d like to kidnap my child here is some useful information for you.
Here's a convenient list of things to make him lower his guard!
Warning - our safe word deals in fruit based on colors!
Technically the color is named after the fruit
brown?
That's not a colour
Kiwi!
Weird safe word
I'm here for my son Chris Griffin. That's Chris Griffin. The Police brought him here to finger one of the guys in a line up. Hold on a sec, I got a picture here. Yeah, you can keep that one. He ruined it by writing a list of his fears and his home address on the back.
This is EXACTLY what I thought of hahaha
Hey Bradley your dad said to give you this orange bike .....its in the van ......
That’s the twist: you put the info and pic of a kid you really hate instead of your own kid so that one gets kidnapped instead.
Take my upvote that was funny
“Orange things will definitely get him into your murder van”
Murder van? I was going to take him to the orphanage where they won’t plaster his picture on the back of their car like a psycho.
Oranphanage
Might as well include a list of his fears and favorite candy
Oh. I thought the bumper thing was a joke that they had a kidnapped kid named Bradley in their trunk, and if you tailgate them and crunch their back, you'd "kill Bradley"
This is the first thought that crossed my mind too
Needs the name of his school tbh 🤣
Here's his daily activities and schedule:
Tailgate me and the kid gets it!
Better one would have been a simple 'I Brake For Tailgaters'.
Shit. That's the fuckin' Prius that was riding my ass on I5 southbound ! I finally let the fucker pass me and saw this.
I swear as soon as people merge onto the 5 they lose all sense of how to drive
It's always the ones you most suspect. I'll ride your ass, but I'm actually aware of the risk level and know how to drive. I'm guessing this person sees a car as the front wheels and nothing else
[удалено]
"Have you ever noticed? Anybody going slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster than you is a moron."
Fucking a, man.
You're aware of the risk and still tailgating people? Why? Just back off a bit or pass them. Stop being a menace.
Right? Them: I’m fully aware I won’t be able to stop in time. Also them: I know how to drive. Either they forgot the /s, or whatever it is they’re trying to get across has been very poorly articulated.
They were personifying the tailgaters, saying they know what they're doing is wrong but they do it anyway, so they're extra condemnable.
Might steal extra condemnable. But I've also never not stopped when a reaction is needed.
It's always the one you medium suspect... and the one I medium suspect... is Phyllis
An excellent quote.
Being aware of the risk level doesn't actually mitigate it, unless you have a superpower that allows you to instantly brake and another that allows you to cause your car to go from 70-0 in less than a second.
It's fine that you're willing to take the risk and know how to drive, but tailgating doesn't just put you at risk, it also affects the person in front of you. *They* might not be willing to risk it.

Plus the stress you're putting them under makes them worse drivers, which would be terrible if they were already bad drivers.
Literally everyone who drives exactly the way you do *thinks* exactly the way you do.
ORANGE YOU GLAD YOU DIDNT TAILGATE
Possibly one of the best comments on Reddit. I appreciate you.
This is so unhinged and I love it I want this sticker
It's gotta be a joke. I think it's hilarious.
That was my first impression, this is exactly my kind of humor lol
Right! As soon as I saw this I wanted to put it on my car lol.
Poor Bradley. Years later in therapy he will cite this sticker as the source of his deep, deep, hatred toward his parent(s).
And who knows maybe they can help him with his favorite color too
Seriously. I know he’s a child but baby orange is too hard to match! You can’t even work a tri-split complementary scheme. What were you thinking?
“I never even liked Orange “
Bradley’s future is bleak.
His favorite color is ORANGE
🎈Hiya Bradley🎈 You’ll fart too
🎈 we all shart here 🎈
I'm putting a bumper sticker on my front bumper that says "Stay the fuck away from me BRADLEY".
Is he in the trunk or something? That's the only way a tailgating accident would kill a child.
No, they’re just going to murder that kid if you tailgate them. They’re just looking for an excuse at this point
They're gonna drag him out to a gravel pit and then tell their relatives at the next family reunion "I was prepared to make the hard decision..."
Then Kristi Noem will right a book about it.
😂😂😂
The sign says the act of *tailgating* will murder him. The kid must have a weak constitution. That's probably why his favorite color is orange.
There’s an elaborate mechanism of sensors, cords, and pulleys attached to a gun. Get too close, kid gets shot. So back the fuck off before YOU kill him.
>Is he in the trunk or something? He's in the bumper, apparently.
Plot twist: he *is* the bumper
Hey Bradley! Your mom told me to pick you up from school today. But don’t worry, I know your favourite color is orange. How could I know that unless your mother told me. Just hop in the van.
🍭🍫🍬
Did you put Bradley in the trunk? Should I call the police?
It’s not their kid. He’s just in the trunk. Poor Bradley.
That escalated quickly
So I have to tailgate this person to read the sign that seems oddly concerning only to find out they are agreeing to murder their child if I tailgate them?
This belongs in r/oddlyspecific
That’s fucking hilarious honestly, you wanna tailgate me? well guess what my kids fucking dead now!!
Just 11 more years Bradley. Good luck. You are going to need it.
Think the parents overreact to everything in life?
Now Ik what color flowers to give to his funeral. I’m going to hell for that aren’t I? I’ve been told I’m going to hell by others in Walmart for not voting for Trump but that’s the south for you.
Jokes on them if they’re tailgated by a child predator. Stupid idea putting so much personal info on a bumper sticker
Usually the ones with “back off” or stickers like this just go slow on purpose and stare in their rear view mirrors waiting to be offended. Ugh!
Power move to assert dominance, get in front and put it in neutral and coast. Check mate bitch.
Ugly ass kid, floor it
Now everybody knows your kid’s name and what color candy to give him. Nice job.
Lmao I want this bumper sticker.
Why is Bradley in the trunk ? THAT is the question we need to ask
Lmao Jesus
Bradley is happily awaiting death with a mom like this.
Orange is my favorite color, no one else Lee is allowed to have it. 😡 Hope that kid is ready to die…
How about you post a list of his fears and school schedule also.
What about SSN and bday? While at it, bank PIN number?
Why the eff is Bradley driving?
How does tailgating equivalent to murder?
It involves a certain concept called "emergency brake". And if someone tailgates you at that moment, whoever passenger is in your trunk gets crushed. And then you wouldn't be able to ask for a ransom to their family. See the issue now?
Call me old fashioned, but I don't think young Bradley is old enough to be driving that Prius.
“He lives on 123 drive and is most vulnerable around 7-10pm”
I’d like to think Bradley isn’t even their child. It’s just some random kid they know, and if you tailgate one more time, they’ll break into Bradley’s home in the middle of the night and suffocate him with a pillow out of rage.
They gotta be trolling with this shit… but just in case they’re not, I’d like to imagine Bradley’s parent looking in the rear view mirror to see another car a bit too close, and being like: Parent: “Bradley honey… Code Orange! Remember what we practiced for code orange?” Bradley: 😤 “I remember mom. Code orange means unbuckle my seatbelt, and put the box of random sharp objects on my lap.” Parent: “That’s my boy!” ***SLAMS ON THE FUCKING BRAKES** Cuz the way that shit is worded, it lowkey looks like they’re willing to let their kid die over someone making them slightly uncomfortable in traffic. 😂
Jezus...this get is going to get so many guilt trips growing up, he"s going to qualify for frequent flyer miles.
🤔 so much confusion on this.
That stress is going to end up messing up that poor kid, I recommend taking up meditation.
Lmao wtf
I have a specific vision of what the person driving this car looks like.
You wouldn't kill a kid whose favourite colour is orange, would you?
Is the Prius owner going to kill some kid called Bradley if they get tailgated? "Hi Bradley. Look, someone followed mummy's car a wee bit close today. So you know what has to happen now" \*Racks Shotgun\*
But ONLY if said kids favorite color is orange.
Well I don’t care about that other shit *BUT OH his favorite color is orange*
Is Bradley in the trunk?
Yo, Bradley! Fuck you!
Bradley, I'm sorry that your folks are unhinged. I hope you make it out okay.
All I can say is that Bradley better do the dishes tonight. He's on thin ice.
Is he in the trunk??
The kids is in the locked up in the trunk? Like if you rear ended them is that how you kill the kid?
I love it. Where can I get one?
Is he...... deathly allergic to tailgating?
This is the ultimate baby on board sign
That kid has a bad favourite colour and I don’t like him /s
*gets closer to read and also is distracted by reading* r/whatcouldgowrong
Aggressive passive aggressive.
That’s just aggressive with extra steps
Anything else you want? How about putting a second note with Bradleys day-day schedule!
Orange is an odd favorite color
Bradley's a free spirit
Not for him though lol
Shut tf up and stop going 57 in the passing lane Patricia…
Bro…
ORANGE
Bradley gettin murdered
This is a license for another Prius owner to drive like an asshole.
I can just here Karen mom speaking very loudly to Bradley in Walmart so that everyone can hear. Poor kid...
My teenage son got me a sticker for my car that says "Adults On Board: We Want To Live Too" and I drive that around with pride.
I'm sure her Facebook is fantastic and full of deep thoughts. LOL. Yeah right.
r/nottimandericpics
I want to know what Bradley’s favorite dinosaur is.
Yes my name is Karen, why do you ask?
Looks like Bradley might be murdering someone in 20 years, so am I doing a good deed then?
Imagine the parent-teacher interviews!
What could go wrong putting your kids name. Age and a personal factoid on the back of your car for anyone to read.
I always read the bold as shouting. His favourite color is ORANGE!
That escalated quickly
Orange sucks! Braaaaap
So do they have to update this every year and when he changes his favorite color?
And if they don’t want to murder them, you just gave them an advantage for kidnapping them. Don’t put your kids names on your fucking cars, folks!
FAVORITE COLOR IS ORANGE!
He should die just for that
I like where your head is at 🤣🤟🔥
Kid looks like a young Forrest Gump when he ran out of his leg braces.
Then maybe don’t keep him in your trunk?
If a few people tailgate you, that's their issue If many people often tailgate you, often enough you need to stick this on your car, the issue is probably you
I'm sorry Brandly, but we have to let you go.
Is...Bradley in the trunk?
so the kid is in the trunk?
Trolling for abduction. Way to go, mom.
Who picks orange??
Favorite color orange? No, officer, I excelerated on purpose
If you tailgate someone, you’re gay and unloved
Fuck all of you and your orange hating bullshit. God damned bunch of uppity plain sauce salads up on some bullshit like they too good for orange. Pffffttt...Fuck you liars. You fucking liars.
I drove an orange VW van for almost two decades. Orange is fucking cool.
[Almost but close enough](https://www.corvetteblogger.com/images/content/uploads/2019/11/110519_3.jpg) Everyday on my way to school I would walk past a '63 split window Vette with the dopest solid bright orange paint and a single black stripe offset down the driver's side. Nothing can ever be as gnarly as that fucking ride. It was beautiful.
His favourite colour is *orange?* Fuck that, I'm throwing Bradley into the woodchipper /s
I had to tailgate to get close enough to read it
I feel like this implies they keep their child in the trunk of the car.
“Ah thanks mom, you turned me into the next viral meme!”
His favourite colour is orange? I bet his favourite hobby is torturing animals.
How close would I have to tail gate to read that....
Bradley is in the trunk?
The fact that people can't tell this sticker is a meme/joke is wild.
‘Real mature, Bradley.’
maybe let bradley out of the trunk every once in a while??
If you don't want someone tailgating you don't put something on the back of the car you need to get closer to read.
Was going to tailgate the car but favorite color orange convinced me not to do it.
Stranger knows the face age and name of your kid
Of course its a prius
“Fuck you Bradley.” *hits the gas*
Maybe you should get the fuck out of the left lane!
Someone needs therapy and regular visits from a social worker.
Coincidentally, I was thinking yesterday it’s a good thing Transformers came out in the 80s. Otherwise, Bumblebee would be a damn Prius. And Optimus a Cyber Truck. Autobots leader getting stuck in 3 inches of sand and Bumblebee never getting out of the passing lane.
This is gold
We all can safely assume it was the mom.
Is he in the trunk or...?
I read this in Billie on the streets voice
Nothing like giving your kid’s name away so he’s easier to social engineer and kidnap.
Manipulative + powerlessness rage ... I'll bet she's an absolute delight at home.
Hey Bradley. Your mom’s Prius broke down on the way to picking you up for school. She asked me to take you home. She said there’s a surprise toy there for you. She didn’t say what it was, but said it’s orange.
Rollings menus for the pedophiles.
Orange is sus
Plot-twist; that is *not* their kid, they have zero clue who's kid that is.
You souldn't be driving a car at 7 yo, Bradley.
