Drive Carefully—Dying Is for Easter Eggs
"Drive carefully. Dying is for Easter eggs. PennDOT"
A macabre message promoting safe driving on an otherwise cheerful bumper sticker from the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT).
As reported in the Pittsburgh Press on April 11, 1973, p. 14, Milton Shapp, governor of Pennsylvania (1971-1979), held a news conference to announce a "$15,000 traffic safety campaign for the Easter holidays with the slogan: 'Drive carefully. Dying is for Easter eggs.' The governor showed a 30-second Department of Transportation film which will be shown on television between now and the Easter weekend, reminding motorists to drive carefully. Transportation Secretary Jacob G. Kassab set the mood for the occasion by coloring Easter eggs and carefully placing them in a basket."
