Highlights
Anti-drinking, anti-speeding, anti-texting ads from Europe are very graphic and shocking
People who drink and drive don't think they will kill someone until they are impaired
Speeders don't consider the danger inherent in speeding
Ad shows kids on a field trip getting run over by a speeding car that flips over a wall
The car flattens all the kids playing in the park
Teachers show no reaction to their entire class being flattened
The real message is don't speed near parks with kids
By signing permission slips, parents sign away everything if something happens
Using "Sweet Child o' Mine" in an ad about dead kids is very inappropriate
The New Zealand ad with the pillow was also extremely graphic
The slow motion really emphasized the damage caused by speeding
This ad was too over the top to be effective
A more subtle approach would work better to change behavior
The cute kids made their deaths even more horrifying
Not a single child was picking their nose or messing around - very unrealistic!
