One of the most graphic I've seen outside of those red asphalt videos.

that was harder to watch thank the Th!nk ads.

Edit: If I had millions of dollars, that would play during the superbowl every year. There's more graphic stuff on tv during primetime anyhow. At least this one comes with a message.

Looks like I am going to disagree with the general consensus.  I think people need to see this shit.  I'm tired of assholes yammering on the cellphone while yelling at their kids in the back seat.  People need to see what results from their inattention - people aside from the ones cleaning up the mess.  We see plenty that's way more graphic than the video shows.

+1. exactly what I was thinking. I was a big fan of the Th!nk ads. Nonsense that they aren't shown in the States, but CSI is quite alright for prime-time.

It was defiantly graphic, but it does make a statement. 

Maybe that what it takes to get the message across to the desensitized audience.

On the other hand, some may look at that and see actors in a mawkishly Donnie Darko (Patrick Swayze) styled presentation consisting of an argument based solely on emotion. I wouldn't be surprised if someone were desensitized after laughing at the painfully predictable and maudlin video.

Even this video attempts to use logical reasoning:

so the little pinky hooks at the end, is that supposed to be a sign for pinky-swear or tiny-pee-pee-syndrome?

Speeding...No one thinks big of you?Huh?Huh?Huh???

What a stupid f***ing tag line for this commercial !!

I really don't see a SINGLE incident related to SPEEDING.  It's all got to do with inattention, driving dangerously or driving without sufficient skill.  As usual the "idiots in command" don't want to face the real issues so they pick something easy.  Don't advocate better and higher training standards and responsible driving...just make people compensate with slower speeds.  That's the mark of a true politically correct bureacrat I guess. 

And to those who find it disturbing.....YES it's graphic and YES it's disturbing.  It's also the way things happen.   Driving is serious business.

Okay..I'm finished ranting. waytogo

1) decaf is good too.

2) the first half was telling people to pay attn to the road and what's going on outside of your car. the second part was about speeding and guys having to show off because they have tiny wangs.
