I’ve seen it occasionally for at least the past 5 years or so, in a number of different states.

It looks like a purple Devo hat with two black eyes (or wheels, even?) underneath it peering to the left. The background is white and there’s a black circle enclosing the main image.

Here is a very poorly drawn representation of it, done to the best of my memory.

Reverse image searching with google and tineye didn’t bring any luck.

Anyone know what this thing is for?

It’s the logo for the "Watch Your Car Program"TM: _The “WATCH YOUR CAR” program is a national vehicle theft prevention program funded by the Bureau of Justice Assistance of the United States Department of Justice. It is a voluntary vehicle registration program designed to deter auto theft and assist in the apprehension of auto thieves._
