"In memory of my loved one, here is the exact point where he hit the guardrail."

I think I'd rather decorate a grave, or a plaque--more accessible, more compatible, less chance of being run over and adding to the death count.

I don't like them because they keep reminding me to stop speeding...so I'm late.

What's the vector, Victor?

Whats our clearance, Clarence?

I always find them to be somewhat accusatory, myself. No one ever puts up a memorial for the sleepy guy who just drove off the road and killed himself. They put up a memorial for the person who (in the family's mind, at least) wasn't at fault in the accident. It's more like, "Let's not forget that some douchbag killed my loved one here."

here perished our pride and joy
in his pranged and twisted toy
it wasn't the speed that caused the wreck
but his urgent need to send a text

here died my baby girlie
18 and blond and curly
here also perished two kiddywinks
because my baby had a few drinks

united with his maker at last
my cheating spouse was going too fast
sadly his girlfriend survived the crash
and sued his estate for loads of cash

Should I apply to Hallmark?

Here died my beloved Mike
All he did was ride a bike
An asshole in a 4-wheel-drive
Made sure he didn't stay alive.

Roadside memorials..
 

While I have seen many travling from point to point, they do not bother me any at all, in fact I feel that they can be used as a awaking to the younger drivers of the dangers of driving.

As for is they stay up, it should be mantained as long as the family wishes it to be.

interesting username, dude.

welcome.
