Nataly 38 #8 August 21, 2010 QuoteIt is a touch too long.... the impact [sic] could be achieved in a shorter version. That and it's overly melodramatic - the accidents are bad enough for the shock-factor and they just go a little bit too far so that in some moments the drama overshadows the event. Still, makes you think."There is no problem so bad you can't make it worse." - Chris Hadfield « Sors le martinet et flagelle toi indigne contrôleuse de gestion. » - my boss Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The drama added value to this video. I agree, except that in *some* parts it was a bit too much. I think the video is actually an amalgamation of many TV "drive safe" ads. Some are excellent; some a bit ott. But overall, I think it's pretty effective."There is no problem so bad you can't make it worse." - Chris Hadfield « Sors le martinet et flagelle toi indigne contrôleuse de gestion. » - my boss Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CanuckInUSA 0 #22 August 21, 2010 This was a very powerful video with a mixture of real accidents and obviously staged ones for effect. I was tempted to stop it part way through. But I said, "no" and finished watching it. Shit like this can happen to anyone of us at any time. None of us are immune. Don't drive like a maniac on the public roads and wear your seat belts!!! If you do want to drive fast, come join as at your local race track where at least innocent people's lives will not be put on the line.
