I thought it was kinda funny (until someone who's stoned drives up and completely swerves into oncoming traffic, ah what the hell, that'd still be kinda funny)

Dumb idea...period.

Two things are going to happen...people will get accustomed to 'seeing' them and begin to ignore them. Then some idiot is going to run down a real kid thinking it's one of these stupid bluffs.
