Nah! Sharks are too high maintenance, and then there are the batteries for the lasers...
You just have to throw the alligators a truck river every couple of weeks and they'll be fine.

Maybe some of those little punks that shamble past will fall in too!

OK!

I went to Home Despot and found a 28" cone and a "prohibido la entrada" sign all for $18. Went the easy minimalist route. Hope this works...

Spread a box of roofing nails and keep refreshing it for a couple weeks. Then get in touch with the local garage and ask for a commission on the uptick in tire patching biz they get. Of course, you can't use your own drive for a while but any repeat customers will soon get the idea.
My other idea is to put some railroad ties across and buy yourself a big four wheel drive. But that could cost too much.
Beer is an ancient beverage that has been consumed as part of a balanced diet for centuries - it contains the goodness of sprouted grain extracted into rich liquid and fermented to produce a nutritional 'liquid cereal' beverage.

I'm wondering if what I've done is a little unsociable...

I'll remove the sign. Not really in my nature and I don't want to make my neighbors think that I'm like that. The cone alone is enough. 8)

There's plenty of room out here in the boonies.  The neighbors are friendly and no one uses the driveways for turnarounds.

We're in great need of medical professionals here.  ;)

I would go the claymore(or IED) route. Works in the middle east!

 How about a radioactive sign on the cone. Just give your neighbors a heads up before.
Heck, Just get a kid to sell lemonade rent free at the front of your drive way.

Maybe you could commission some 3D art for your driveway:



Dude i got vertigo looking at that! +!

Too funny. I was just about to suggest this. Maybe an image of a wall.

Go to a tag sale and find a kids bike or tricycle or small kid toys place at end of the driveway. No one wants to hit a kid and also might make them slow down.
