Toxic behavior on the road: What's wrong with some drivers' cars?

Nice - In response to the reckless driving behavior of some SUV owners, a French artist has developed a particularly cynical "accessory".

In the city of Nice, several cars were recently spotted decorated with "Auto Balls".

In the middle of the rear bumper hang two skin-colored rags, which are modeled very faithfully on the male scrotum.

Behind this is an artist called "TooLate", who wants to draw attention to "toxic masculinity" in road traffic with this campaign.

"Hang them on the back of your SUV and let everyone know that you're not afraid to take risks on the road," writes the man responsible on Instagram about his "car balls", which he sells in his store for a whopping 50 euros.

The sarcastic description of the eye-catching product is that dragging such "car balls" across the asphalt is a symbol of "undisputed masculinity".

Incidentally, the testicle replicas are made from a modeling clay, as the artist shows in a video. Two thick round balls form the base, the skin folds are filled in with a spatula, a thread is pulled through an eyelet and the "Auto Balls" are ready to hang.
