A proximate cause is that other drivers are depersonalized since you see them “embodied” as a car. I think if these could be used to humanize other drivers that would help address that issue. For example, using these signs to say what you are doing eg “going to grandmas!” or who you are eg “just a tired parent, sorry for any bad driving!” would lighten the mood and hopefully trigger empathy in other drivers.
