Yeah , that's a great one.

The shocking stats are the only indication of the price we all pay, because apart from the odd car crash we drive past (OK maybe once or twice a day) , nobody sees the injured drivers, the casualties, the amputees, the lost careers , etc. Some people- like me- need to be scared and shocked out of their complacency.

I won't go near a car if I've had even a single drink. I had a minor, self-corrected fishtail incident over ten years ago, and it scared me enough to maintain a total no-alcohol driving record ever since.

Are the people filmed in those ads actually the people who are in the wreckage???

This, or something similar,should be compulsory viewing as part of the driving test.
