Caution: Graphic Scenes:

The U.S. needs commercials like these.

 

Good one.

 

It made me cry. j/k It wasn't graphic enough and doesn't make me not want to speed. It totally doesn't work. I don't think the guy crushed would have died spontaneously like that. I've seen dudes completely crushed and sandwiched between things that are still alive. He should have been spitting up blood and crying help me as he died a slow agonizing death. It would have been more realistic at effective at least. That commercial was too much like watching Grey's Anatomy to be scary. They should have done it 50s educational film style if they wanted to scare the hell out of you and make you not want to speed.

 

Agree that it could be more graphic but its still better than you will see in the U.S.

 

I don't know about that. There was that one ad for what was formerly outpost.com where they were launching hamsters into a brick wall trying to hit the O. Starving children in Ethiopia commercials are more graphic than the speeding ad. The old Banned from TV ads would take it up to the money shot. There are others I can think of. For some reason I can't get Grey's Anatomy out of my head while watching the speeding ad. Maybe it's the way its shot or the song or something.

 

maybe its because we're not all as demented as you

 

Probably.

 

A little more realistic.............

That's a good one Jay

 

That one works. Not too graphic but effective. The only place I'll speed is on open highway because that commercial kind of represents my fear of speeding city streets. I'm too afraid of a child running into the street to even think of going over over the speed limit. Its just plain dumb to speed in populated areas.
