Just seen this - wow - we really should have this sort of thing over here - a very very hard hitting message and be warned the video is quite hard to watch

Stuff like this should be included in the last years of school education.

Gulp .... A hard hitting message indeed , I agree this should be shown all thru the year , not just at christmas,

I strongly believe that if any driver is found to be over the limit & convicted they should lose their license for life, not just a year or two, they KNOW/KNEW they are doing wrong .

Drink driving and driving way above the speed limit in built up areas should carry a massive fine and a very long ban not too mention a massive hike in insurance so the rest of us don't have to help foot the bloody cost.

I agree 100% with HA and they should follow down the line with younger drivers that have the two year term and if they get one point ban them for five years and it may stop them tearing about .

Why cant we get the point across like the Ozzys do.

At the end of the day you're in charge of a lethal weapon and to do after drinking or drugs it should be treated as such.....

The Ozzys say it as it is because they don't take any notice of the do gooders that want to live in a pink fluffy world and not face reality. In their road safety adds if a limb is missing they film it and show it, or did several years ago.
