Well there ya go, maybe the government could sell little parcels of ditch-front property for Mrs. Robinson to put up a cross to remember lil Jimmy.
Ehhhh ... I dunno ... Kinda goes to the "victim" mentality to me. Oh look ... Poor pitiful me ... I lost someone important to me ... "HERE" But I'm a heartless ***** that way. I don't like the "memorials" on the back of cars either ... RIP, John or Jane Doe, XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX either. Yeah, I've lost friends and family is lots of ways, too. Some of them "fair", like my almost 100 year old grandmother who lived a full and rowdy life absolutely terrorizing the rest of her immediate and extended family in ways that would make families of lesser souls cry "FOUL", some of them "not so fair", like my month old grandson ...
My point is, maybe folks would do well to remember a couple of things my grandpa taught me when I was 4 and my puppy died:
1. Life ain't fair.
2. It's not just you life ain't fair to. Get over yourself.
OK ...
Carry on ... 
Caojyn- awesome job peppering fraggle rock in!
My perspective on it is they are trash, the reason you get a gravesite in a cemetery is for your loved ones to mourn the dead. I'm waiting for some lawsuit where some one gets mowed down cause they were standing on the side of the road mourning.

Don't like for most of them. Some are too gaudy. I also don't care for back window memorials.
When I die, I completely expect a huge, bawdy, woolen shrine in my honor in front of every sheep pasture west of the Mississippi. Don't disappoint me.
The thing that concerns me the most about them, they are a distraction to the already crappy drivers I have to share the road with.
I would rather have people ask why I have no monument than why I do.
