May be a repost but I've never seen it. This can very easily / does happen every day. Thank God for the local track, I have seriously cut down on the speeding.

wow that guy that swerved to miss the dog is a doushe.

 

omg..... Sad thing is stuff like this happens every day That really gets the message across.

 

Yes it surely does, I live right down from the dragon, like 10 min drive max, and you know when someone wrecks on it. But hopefully more people will see ad's like this and THINK before driving stupid or just trying to save 2-5k in damage than just hitting a damn dog.

 

Why can't we have advertisement like this in the State (at least I have yet to see anything like this)...ya it's graphic but sure as hell gets its point across really well

 

+1 on the responses.

It's not about freaking people out or bashing those who speed / race. I myself would be a big hipocrite if I acted like I never drive irresponsibly.

The sad truth is, too many people are REALLY not aware of how much (or how little) control they actually have of their vehicles, and what CAN happen any time. There are just so many variables, and an overwhelming majority of drivers / equipment is NOT up to the task of reacting fast and effectively enough.

 

Fake

 

Yes it's fake, because it's a commercial. That still doesn't mean something like that doesn't happen. We'd never get an ad campaign like this in the states, gotta make sure the kids don't see stuff like that. Ridiculous.

 

Sadly, no advertisement will stop people from speeding.....just like smoking, no matter how many people die from smoking people still continue to smoke.

 

****.....

i am afraid that is prolly all i can say. brings new thoughts to my head. Just having gone off the road due to a patch of gravel (doing ten over) i can really relate to the lack of control you can have of your car even in a normal/everyday enviroment.

 

they need to show this **** durin the superbowl repeat x20 times or more hahah

or esp drinking.. just last month a friend of mine's gf died when thier truck was struck head-on on the freeway from some stupid drunk bitch goin the wrong way at night with her lights off, my friend survived with a broken arm and a leg, his gf didnt make it.. the drunk driver survived..

 

Drunk drivers walk away from most wrecks, due to the lack of body control they have when being so drunk, but its a shame.. ANY drunk driver who kills or really hurts another driver SHOULD face stiffer fines, no right to drive for many years and 100% jail time for the crime.

 

Agreed. And very sorry about your friend's gf.

 

I always say that if your going to something dumb at leased do it the smartest way possible.

 

graphic!

 

 

how graphic? I think I should wait till I get home.

 

its a foreign commercial. Its work safe IMO.

 

I wish a lot of european commercials came out in america. This commercial is probably too graphic and would catch a lot of heat even though its VERY true and has a powerful message. The "evil" Sport Ka's are always funny.

 

The fact that you felt it necessary to point out that its “FAKE” shows that for a moment you pondered the idea that it may be a real footage, and even more insultingly thought that someone here may belive it to be real footage. Since when have you seen any thing “REAL” with that many camera angles?

How long did you believe in Santa? Was Terminator based on a true story? I could go on about this.

Its a commercial you nitwit.

Dude, go drive into a wall so we can buy parts from your car.

 

speed kills in both ways. be safe out there, if its not for yourself do it for others

 

Next time don't use insults, to avoid falling under the "flaming" category, but

 

Your right, I should'nt flame the poor kid, hes probably 18 and excited.

 

well, I saw the commercial. seems like the driver wasn't looking ahead IMO.

Should have seen the dog on the side of the road and slowed down, or like you all said, just run it over.

Drinking and driving is no joke yet many people do it. This particular commercial would be considered too graphic based on the standards we have here. We can show dismemberment at the movies yet we can't show stuff like this on TV because too many people will be traumatized/upset/hurt feelings.

I can go on and on about this and other issues plaguing our world today but I doubt anyone wants to read all that bullshit again. I said All I needed to say in the suggestions thread that was eventually locked and it just shows me that nobody cares to do their part.

Enjoy life, and be happy you never have to deal with this and if you do, hope it's a quick, painless death rather than a life of misery and possible quadriplegia.

 

hope im not the only one who lol'ed.

a little overly dramatic if you ask me. its for a good cause so i guess thats the point.
