I always wanted a programmable sign that could display messages to asshats behind me

hmm… What would the legality be of 3D printing fake machine guns that pop out of the brake lights like a James Bond vehicle; as a scare tactic? 🤔
Depending on the country. Could be listed as threats or terroristic threats, even if the guns are fake.
Now a up mirror. That might be interesting
The mirror will still get you fucked for creating hazards I bet, but if it only works when the hazard already exists, morally youre in the clear.
And likely illegal, but that will also make things very interesting for you for a bit
