nice video. While I only got caught for speeding once ( I thought I was still on a highway for some reason) I always make sure that I'm not going 5 over. But damn those people in the video were not even paying attention and screw the boy that got run over when he wasn't paying attention to the road.Nifty_Shark
To be honest, I kinda giggled when I saw him go flying.
The moral is: Take your eyes off your goddamn phone idiot.
Quite depressing and it makes you really think. I didn't watch it all because i get the point, it reminds me of a once beutifull, succefull woman, who one day got in her car and got hit by a drunk driver, her car burst into flames, burning 100% of her body, her face resembled that of a monster. The guy who was drunk apologized, but that womens life is ruined because of idiots like that.
Sometimes i would get in the car with a friend, and tell him to put his seatbelt on if he forgets, once i was questioned "you think i need a seatbelt?, i drive really good" FOOL! you may be a good driver but what if you get hit by someone who is a bad driver? People think to highly of themselves and have no regard for anyone else.
HAHAHAH i love the one where the girl is sitting on the wall and making out with her boyfriend and the car flips and flips and sandwhiches the boyfriend between the wall and she cant get away from his body.
Sorry, did anyone else see this as a really cool violence movie? I couldnt stop laughing.
And then the finger waggle at the end, priceless.
I remember witnessing an accident where a little girl in a school zone was crossing on a crosswalk. A car stopped to let her cross but the car behind that one swerved to go around the stopped car and hit the girl at a good clip. Seeing her body fly through the air and land in a crumpled, and unnatural shape was heart wrenching. It was even worse when she regained conciousness and began to scream.
The same thing happened to me when I stopped at a crossing to let a lady cross and the car behind me went around me and hit her. My kids were in the car and saw the whole thing and were crying. It made a huge impression on them. The lady lived.

similiar thing happened to me. Where I live, there are two one-way streets downtown, both three lanes wide. Well the one going north is kind of one block away from the center of downtown, so people tend to go a little faster there since its a means to an end and not really for cruising down.
So there is this one crosswalk where it has the yellow lights on the road. Its also the main crosswalk since there is a big garage across the street, and all the crosswalks within 3 blocks have no signals and traffic is coming at 30-40 mph.
So anyway, people walk up to the crosswalk, trip the sensors, and the yellow lights flash and cars are supposed to slow down. THe problem is it is 3 lanes wide, and these impatient college kids dont see people walking two car widths away and just keep cruising, eve nthough all the cars around them are stopped.
Ive seen more than a few people get hit there.

I was very nearly a victim of such an accident myself. I was crossing with a friend at a marked crosswalk, and some truck blew by the stopped car at the crosswalk. It's a good thing I was paying attention. I noticed him coming up too fast and grabbed my friend just before she stepped into its path. I still remember the freakish feeling of that thing whipping by with less than half a metre to spare. He didn't even notice the car that was stopped there.
But it turned out the car that had stopped for us was an unmarked police car. So that truck driver probably ended up with a hefty fine. But I never trust other drivers and haven't since I was young. No matter where you are on the road, you ALWAYS scan for idiots.
Does the TC even have a driver's license?
Everyone speeds. No one obeys the speed limit 100% of the time.
And considering everyone does it, it's actually unsafe to NOT speed. Nothing's more dangerous than one woman chugging along at the speed limit when everyone else is doing 15-20 MPH over. Speeding saves lives.Does the TC even have a driver's license?

Most of those would caused from not looking at the road, not because of speeding.Ice-Hot_MoFo
my thoughts exactly.
Speeding does not necessarily mean accidents.
Stupid driving, however, will lead to accidents.
Plus, the degree of speeding is a factor. Some yahoo going 120 in a 55 zone is a stupid driver, and then a speeder. Some guy going 70 in a 55 zone, however, is not a stupid driver he is just going a bit over the limit.
Are you sure the video is portraying an anti speeding message, seems more like hot women being flirtatious are getting innocent people killed.Montayagood one
That was one of the most God-awful and trashiest videos I have seen in a while. What kind of sick people come up with and actually make this crap? Seriously cheesey ass, over the top scare tactics like this make me sick and I can't believe anyone actually takes this junk seriously...
Heres something people need to realize, speeding in itself isn't that dangerous unless it isn't something ridiculous like 15-20+ over. Whats dangerous is not keeping far back enough behind the other vehicles, not catering to the weather conditions, and not paying attention. I personally find people who go too slow the bigger problem. Nothing quite like changing lanes only to have to slam on your brakes cause some idiot is going 10 under...
Think about it, a speeder generally doesn't bother the other vehicles much as they will just pass around everyone else. However, just look at how much chaos an idiot going too slow causes. People get incredibly impatient and mad, people keep having to try and get around the idiot which involves a bunch of cars switching lanes constantly.
