Driving a Message Home with an Optical Illusion

Let’s take a vote, is this optical illusion thing a good idea or a surefire way to make someone crash when they jerk the wheel to avoid the "kid" in the road? I’ll take door number 2.

Motorists travelling on 22nd Street in West Vancouver will be confronted with a 3D image of a little girl chasing a ball in the street starting next Tuesday. The girl will be an optical illusion, but the scenario is very real, according to David Dunne of the BCAA Traffic Safety Foundation.
