阅读理解 A Nearly two million drivers in the UK have had accidents due to "Baby on Board" signs and children's toys that affect their view,according to alarming new research.One in

20 motorists says stickers and playtime paraphernalia (装备) are to blame for a collision―equivalent to 1.85 million of Britain's

37 million drivers.The discovery triggered a warning by a road safety charity―Brake to cut down on clutter (杂乱的东西) in the car. Deputy chief executive Julie Townsend said "Baby on Board" signs are very useful in alerting the emergency services that a child may be involved in case of a crash."This help can become negative if drivers display signs when their child isn't in the car," she said."Worse still is the danger that can be caused by drivers influencing their view by cluttering up (塞满) windows with lots of signs.Drivers' priority should always be getting there safely without putting themselves,young passengers or other road users at risk." A survey arranged by price comparison website Confused.com found that

37 percent of parents have displayed signs and four out of five of them believe they improve safety.But

46 percent admit doing so at all times―regardless of whether or not their child is in the car―and

15 percent admit they only have them for their novelty (新奇) value.The poll of 2,000 drivers also found that

46 percent of drivers regard them as a risk and

33 percent say they are lacking in taste. "There are benefits and dangers to 'Baby on Board' signs.They can offer useful information for medical aid in case of a crash but having too many novelty items displayed could be a safety issue," said a Confused.com spokesman. 1.What do we learn about the signs on the car from Paragraph 1?
