American Flags on Model A Bumpers - Safety?

[H. L. Chauvin]

Hi,

A. Often wonder statistically what effect flying Model A vendor type American flags on Model A bumpers may have as regards to highway safety when Model A's are maybe traveling at say 45-50 mph, i.e., slower than the 55 mph speed limit; or, even slower that 70 mph speed limit on freeways.

B. Could flying flags on Model A front and/or rear bumpers be outlawed in some states?

C. We often hear the term, "It raises a red flag"; however, every time I see a flying rag flag on the highway it is usually attached to lumber sticking out of the rear of a truck; or maybe long pipes, logs, or telephone poles sticking out of the rear end of a truck trailer; or whatever; but for some reason it appears "It raises a red flag" where one tends to be more cautious & careful when one sees these flags flying in the breeze.

D. Every now & then we read or hear of some extremely sad story of a very nice vintage vehicle owner getting rear-ended by maybe a texting driver, a careless driver, a speeding driver, a cell phone using driver, or what ever one can imagine kind of driver, tipsy or sober.

E. Often wonder if American flags flown on Model A bumpers would help just a little to "Raise a red flag" for some of our different 2013 closer following drivers.

F. We could say a dynamite blast in the middle of the highway would not rise the eyebrow of some drivers; but maybe flying flags on a Model A is not a bad idea.
