  What will happen is people will tune them out. And real children too.

  They tried this in the states, but they were riddled with bulletholes and cost too much to replace. They went back to real children, for economic and cultural reasons.

  That fake child is ugly. It would be wrong not to speed up.

  Every muscle in my body would be screaming to swerve the car into that monstrosity. Imagine seeing it at night.

  A good traffic management plan acknowledges that when child predators slow down to look, it slows everyone else down too. /s

  I haven’t seen one yet. Maybe they don’t use them in every part of France?

  Just increase the fines for going over the speed limit
