Free Hypermiling Decal

I saw this as a google ad on one of the forum pages and clicked on it:

Lawful Hypermiling - Free Safety Decal Order Page



They don't ask for any money and just basic info to mail it to you. Whoever these folks are, they think like us without some of the more radical tendencies.

Hey, it's free!

"saving fuel is NEVER worth risking an accident"
I like that statement.
while driving to save gas, I always watch the traffic around me
to be sure that anything I do is safe.
Yesterday we were behind a car that came up on a 'hypermiler' that was coming off an exit from the highway,
At 65 mph they closed in on our 'friend' doing about 30, very fast.
Fortunately the ramp was wide enough to pass (barely),
and we all got by,
but that was a very bad and dangerous method to say gas.
The car had cardboard skirts and some writing on it bragging about the great mileage,
but that would have been for naught, if he was crushed by that much bigger car going much faster.
Please . .
Save gas - wisely !

Ditto here too.

I don't hypermile around traffic, but I do keep at 55 mph when being passed by a wave of cars. After they are gone - back to P&G or whatever it is I need to do.

I like this sticker - says it all.

Has anyone gotten their sticker yet?
I'd like to get one,
but would be re-assured that it's not just some name-grabbing scam,
if they actually deliver.
