What's up with all the BEADS hanging on mirrors???

OK I could understand when I started seeing "bouquets" of feathers & dream catchers hanging from the inside rear view mirrors of cars driven by Native Americans. It's a cultural thing and heck... some are even quite nicely done. But what's with all the cars running around with grotesque displays of shiny colored beads... like a string of pearls made of metallic colored beads. And usually 3,4,6,8 strings dangling from the mirror. Have the drivers of these cars traced their ancestory back to the earliest county fair carnivals. Is it a way of saying, "I'm proud my great-great-grandfather ran the first tilt-a-whirl"?
These displays are tacky & have to be distracting to the driver.
