I just wanted to bring up this advertisement, which has been banned from British television!
Stof til eftertanke - Bilgalleri.dk - Danmarks største bilgalleri
I just wanted to know whether it plays on your televisions? and what do you think?
I personally think that it's too graphic, buts its needed. There are speed breakers here (humps), and cameras >.<. However on other roads, even though there is a speed limit, people still speed. Myself included >.< and by maybe watching this advertisement people will think! That they need to slow down! Although many of the accidents are unlikely to happen here, i think the overall message should be broadcasted!
Well i just wanted to know what you guys think? If it does not show on your televisions, should it? If it does, what do you think?

the part about seatbelt keeping a soul from flying away was very clever imoPosted 02-03-2009 at 04:12 PM by BlazeCommanderASCE -
my god. no ads like this one does not air here, but if it did then maybe some would slow down. i don't know haw many times i have had close calls myself on the crosswalk, and i'm with my children. graphic--yes very, but needed--i think the shock factor is good visual, and needed.Posted 02-03-2009 at 04:14 PM by vesta - I don't live in Europe, but OMG that made me cry. I hate all the needless destruction/pain of this world.
I loved the ending. It's what I think: overcompensating...
To me, it's like domestic/child abuse commercials. May not be pretty to watch, but very much needed. Could have been less graphic, but where do you draw that line and still have the same impact? I don't know.Posted 02-03-2009 at 04:33 PM by LunarPhoenix -
I'm glad that this got banned from British TV. Its too graphic imo. It would kill the mood if your watching something good like football and then this came on. The message is needed but there should be other ways to get it across.Posted 02-03-2009 at 04:37 PM by Karyuudan - i dont think it will stop speeders.
"Im good driver i dont make accidents"
If you speed, know when (deffinatly not in small roads with cars parked by sides or lowered vision like the one with guy fixing car behind a turn) and by how much.
We had such broadcasting messages in TV for several years. Right now they are very little of them as they didnt work. Pritty much like a rule to have front lines turned on all time.Posted 02-03-2009 at 04:37 PM by Anaztazioch -
hm no i didn't saw it on tv bit was needed ......thats what happens when u are not pay attention when u don't drive
is a shocking advertisementPosted 02-03-2009 at 04:38 PM by Dany1908 - shocking adv was when some one said guys father died, so a guy tought his father died, so he was speedin through a city to get to hospital, and in hospital he saw his father still living and the one that was calling was a layer form cellphone company saying his fathers contract on use of phone died out...Posted 02-03-2009 at 04:42 PM by Anaztazioch

I've seen the first part before I think, and definately the last ones with the little fingers. We saw those in a road safety presentation we had in 6th form programme at school. We saw a load of really graphic ones too. More graphic than some of those...They had problems when they wanted to do a presentation like that at my cousin's school cos his dad died on a motorbike when he was about 5 or 6. I'm good at repressing stuff, else they would have had problems with me cos when I was 5 or 6 I saw someone die on a motorbike...Thankfully I don't remember it. My mum's scared to know first aid now too, because right after she completed her course, the first accident she came accross was an accident someone had died in and she was the only first aider...Posted 02-05-2009 at 09:11 PM by DragonOfTheBloodMoon -
oh yes i have seen most of them many times and it used to give me the creeps every time they showed it on tv, and i dont think they have been banned, they simply decided to just show it late in the night, and i think they are needed....Posted 02-11-2009 at 09:47 PM by mimzy -
To everyone who lives in Europe + Other, now there's something that everyone can relate to
about the video, it has a good message, especially the last part with the little fingers(it's usually true
) but the rest was a bit too much. and not because it was too graphic but because it tries to pass a message through guilt, sorrow or fear which i generally find wrongPosted 02-12-2009 at 08:17 AM by ProDeathblow -
didn't see it on TV, but searched at youtube and I think it should be on tv on every channel, and I agree with Vesta = "i think the shock factor is good visual, and needed."Posted 04-18-2009 at 03:39 PM by Tourah -
that was so sad...it made me cry :'(
I don't live in Europe, but i do think that they should show this in the USPosted 04-19-2009 at 02:54 AM by SparkleStardust -
wow uh this wasn't meant to make anyone cry, i just posted to raise awareness ^_^..but they need to be shown!!!Posted 05-18-2009 at 05:19 PM by Rupks -
