Speed Hurts

[SEM]

I was looking for some time lapse imagery when i found this. Apologies if it has already been posted, i've not seen this before. It's an advert for speeding, a bit like the guy's and the pizza not wearing setbelts

How powerful is that and how many of us could that be

Amazingly clever effects to creat that imagery :bannana:

They are both VERY powerful, but are they cases of speeding?

In the first it seems that driving without due care (preening in the mirror, fiddling with the radio) but not speeding was the cause of the crash. In the second she was driving at 100kmh on an open road, which in the UK would probably not be speeding. Poor judgment on the Fiat driver to pull out in front of the Toyota seems to have been the cause.

I fear that in Scandanavia, like the UK, speeding is the big stick used to beat drivers with, whereas in fact it is inattention that statistically causes most accidents. Excess speeding is to blame in something like 8% of crashes. Let's have more importance put on driver education (with films such as these) but don't call it speeding.

Both very clever films, though.
