Re: [RC] safety sign for back of trailer - Karla Watson

I saw a good one once:
Caution--Horses Inside
Nervous Driver at Wheel!

Given the current state of our culture in which rudeness and aggressiveness prevail, I'd be concerned about posting such a sign for fear that it would only invite "target shooters" -- wondering just how close they could tailgate without hitting the horses.  Or worse, how about those with the "Oh yeah?  Well, my timetable doesn't include waiting on the safety of any  #*$# horses, so zoom-crash, here I come."  (i.e., Don't tell ME what to do.)
 
We need to remember that there are many drivers on the road who have no intention of practicing reciprocal common courtesy or common sense.  I'm finding it safer to keep a low profile and try to stay out of compromising conditions--when possible.

Does anyone know where to find a sign to post on the back of my trailer that says," I travel at a speed that is safe for my horses. When able, I will pull over."

I saw it on the back of someone's horse trailer and would love to put one on the back of my trailer.
