The texting one was awesome.  Sounds cruel and cold but accidents like that need to happen more often exclusively to people who (though talking on the phone is bad as well) TEXT while driving.  
If videos like this is enough to significantly curve texting and driving.....awesome but i get a bad feeling that this is a thing that will get better only after people pay with their lives....hang up and drive!

Sorry for the rant and merry Christmas.

What shocks me more than the commercials is that Dui, accidents and fatalities are all still going up.

Few weeks ago now, there came an almighty noise from the front of the house.  Ran and looked out the door to a scene of destruction. The centerpiece being a young lady in a small modern car, with a face full of airbag, and an arm sticking out from under sed bag, still clutching a mobile phone...    Seriously, stereotype much?      End result 3 cars destroyed, (incl mine  Roll Eyes) And a smashed up front yard full of glass.    But all things considered, she missed two girls at the busstop by inches, so it could have been significantly worse.

Either which way, such a pointless crash that couldn't even be called an accident. 

Take care on the roads,  cause they're out there.

Thanks for video, it is scary but also a brutal reminder for all those who drink while driving. Video link is posted on D.O.C. (Ducati Owners Croatia site) as a warning, and I hope all these scenes will not be part of someones real life. Drive carefully and stay safe.

I'm in the same boat as you.  My wife asked what I was looking at before some of the crashes started, I shrugged it off.  A few seconds later the guy getting out of the car got creamed good, and thats when it started hitting me.  Wife said DAMN honey, must have been bad if it made YOU choke up like that...


NEVER a bad idea to remind yourself why you DON'T do something...

Happy holidays to all, and drvie/ride safe out there drink

The UK, Aussie and Kiwis get these.

And in the US, the best I've seen was a "wear your helmet" PSA a few decades back with a watermelon bouncing off a truck and hitting the pavement and going "smooosh" in slow motion.

It wasn't a bad (but probably too subtle for most folks) reminder of how delicate the contents of your head are.

But it pales in comparison to these.

It's mildly graphic.

Compared to what the typical officer sees on a daily basis. 

For the rest of us..F*CK!!  :l 

The part where the guy gets run down as the woman is sitting inside her car reminds me of the officer in Michigan who was hit by a semi.  He stopped her and as he was by the side of the car, a semi plowed him down.  They had to pry the woman's hands of the steering wheel.  Embarrassed  That's why you'll see the cop cars parked behind and on an angle when they stop cars in MI.  To divert oncoming cars in case they get too close.

Hard hitting but a good clip.
