Road rules

Road lines speak straight to the driver behind: honk, keep your distance, dip your lights.

Truck owners choose a line like this and have it painted across the tailgate in flowing script, surrounded by flowers, birds and reflective chamak patti. Press the speaker to hear how it sounds, or share it as a card.
