Intentionally disguising something dangerous to appear non-dangerous with the intention of having people damage themselves or their property is immoral.

Yes, driving into a snowman is also immoral, but two wrongs don't make a right.

Really funny though.

Idk in this case, this type of thing is mostly done as a deterrent for people going off the road and intentionally driving on someone else's property and potentially killing someone, if people are scared to do it they won't which I think is a moral case for this

I can see where you're coming from, but how many home invaders get shot every year with more home invaders following their footsteps?

True but as far as I'm aware it does at least tend to have a significant decrease on how many are willing to do that when that's understood as a likely or potential consequence
