Speed ad…
Well said, spaz.
Bad decisions kill, not speeding.
This.
Slow drivers are more dangerous to other road users.
THIS!
Always assume every other road user is going to make a mistake.
Always assume there are animals wanting to run out.
Always assume there are kids behind parked cars.
Yep, and in all three examples, the safest place for your eyes to be is firmly fixed on the road (and surrounds) ahead, NOT on your speedometer.
Never change how you drive because of the police. Change how you drive to be safe.
Draconian speed enforcement ensures that although entirely rational in an ideal world, this approach simply isn’t practical if you want to keep your licence.
I still have my license after +1mil km.
For 3years I couldn’t drive because I didn’t pay 1 parking fine and didn’t update my address, busted driving on a license cancelled because of unpaid fine I was unaware of.
Incidentally, if the driver of the Nissan wagon had been going much FASTER, he would have passed the intersection before that irresponsible moron pulled his 4WD into his path.
Not relevant. Much, much faster and he could have travelled through time.
Hope you see my point, I understand what you’re saying but could have hit the moron the entered the intersection before him.
The current crop of Aussie ads for drowsy drivers are very good.
I’m sure they were inspired by this real life near miss.

Nah mate, completely relevant.
It illustrates the undeniable fact that this “anti-speeding” ad (just like pretty much all of them) relies on a totally contrived scenario that fails to take into consideration the all the pertinent variables - my stated scenario being just one of the many. For example, yet another just as viable alternative scenario is that the driver of the Nissan wagon was so concerned about not “speeding” he was constantly monitoring his speedometer so he wouldn’t get fined, and even though he was actually driving at well under the posted speed limit, he wasn’t watching the road ahead at the exact moment the irresponsible moron pulled his 4WD into his path, didn’t see him until it was too late, and hit him anyway.
The truth is that whatever way you look at it, the accident is 100% the irresponsible moron driving the 4WD’s fault, yet they still want us to believe that it’s justifiably an “anti-speeding” ad.
The guy in the Subie is most definitely at fault in this case!!!!!
Had there been a crest/bend in the Nissan’s path that formed a blind spot, then the Nissan would have been at fault for speeding!!!!!
And an example of where speeding can kill!!!!!
By the way, the Australian ad isn’t even an original concept. The idea was copied off a Thai ad - which, of course, also completely FAILS to depict a scenario in which driving at a speed faster than the posted limit is the actual CAUSE of the accident.
In the add above.
If he had of floored his Subaru instead of creeping out from from intersection….
Forester Turbo 0-100 = 5.2 sec.With speeding Nissan Wagon hard on ABS brakes…
A big rear ender; and that’s if Nissan didn’t brake hard.
There’s this house near us, on the highway, right near the end of an overtaking lane, on a big blind corner. Occupant of house insists on crossing the road in their little old car, which is blowing stuff out the exhaust because the engine isn’t warm, and then creeps across the overtaking lanes, blissfully ignorant that vehicles of all shapes sizes and speed cannot see the car, don’t expect the car, and are generally going hell for leather because it’s the end of the last overtaking lane before town.
Accident waiting to happen, right there.
Then there are every other driver who sit on 80 only to speed up to 110 once they hit the overtaking lane. RANT!

I effing depise retards who do this.
And the idiots that are in a freeway merging lane that don’t look till the last second, or level peg so you move over into the right lane, only to put the foot down the moment they have merged!!!!!
Wankers!!!!!
I dont move for those poeple
Yeah, I’ve been doin the same myself lately!!!!! 
not exactly an ad, but CCTV footage…...
The Wisconsin Department of Transportation’s traffic cameras captured the frightening massive pileup that happened on Highway 41/45 near Lannon Rd. around noon on Sunday, December 8th.
I watched it twice.
I can’t believe the crazy fools that were standing on the sides of the roads. One dude really had to hightail it when a few cars smashed through!

Can you believe it??? they guys who had smashed off into the field on the RHS must have been in trouble, they were running over there. Love the truckies they were styling it!
In time there were a number of people in trouble over there, no doubt!
