Speeding..

Post by Milky »

Not sure if it's already come up on here at some point or whether it was a different one..

Here's a vid that might get ya thinking anyway. Personally I don't know why the feck they don't use adverts like this in the UK.

I don't disagree, but alot of what was going on there was showing off, inappropriate speed for the road conditions/area and general poor roadcraft ie, lack of effective observation-reading the road ahead, a lapse of concentration at any speed could be lethal...

its interesting watching people's reactions when they watch the vid, the majority actually seem to be affected by it but two guys at college watched it today and laughed at it all! :? funny how some people deal with seeing a bit of reality. others just seem to excuse it "ohh it's because they were driving like tw@s it's not like that at all" sort of thing. i expect just covering up they're own guilt in different ways because we've all done it at some point or other.
