Difficult to watch, but IMHO and honest effort to make people more aware and thoughtful of their actions.

As above I don't think it would hurt to place it on our TV screens one bit - those that take offence to it are most likely the ones who need to pay the most attention to it.

pah people become so totally desensitised to all this playing things like GTA 4 and I never once saw a hooker getting mugged in that vid. I was playing GTA with my 9 year old nephew (his copy) and there was less carnage during WWII. Even my 3 year old daughter had a shot though I did ask her to try not to hit all the pedestrians as it really wasn't the objective of the game... (she is very good at looking for cars when crossing the road though)

I don't think it wise to hide the truth from people about the reality's of something that can very easily kill them, show them how bad it gets. "Oh but I don't want to shock them!" well they look quite shocked being ripped to shreds under the wheel of an artic tbh

From living in Australia for 6 years I can see why the advert was made. Pubs are few are far between in the small towns not forgetting the drive through wine stop shops!

I remember all the TAC TV campaigns, the posters and a good deal else when living in Australia (90's). Extremely good, as were the cigarette packets, stomach churning stuff (literally).

Even the simple, less horrific posters at the time, everywhere: "If you drink and drive you're a bloody idiot". I don't think that would fly in the (oh too sensitive) dis-UK.
