Thought provoking piece. One of the thoughts it provokes from me - aside from "I agree that the signs should not be necessary" and "heh :)" - is that the sign has always had the faint whiff of the freak show to it. I half expect to see a sad little girl in a yellow dress, head down, all alone, standing under the sign. "Look, Ma! A deaf child! A real-life deaf child!"

That said, I, too, drive more cautiously when I see a white cat. And I pedal more cautiously when I see white headphones. And I suppose I take extra care when I see those signs - though I most often see those signs out on busy roads or in the country when there aren't all that many children playing on the sidewalk anyhow.

So my final provoked thought is ... "I dunno."
