rhj999 Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 Extremely powerful video. I am a serving paramedic and hope this is continues to be an event free christmas - road traffic wise. I am working next Wed and Thur nights so I hope it continues. Everyone has the right to go out and enjoy themselves - just do it responsibly.

poppypiesdad Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 They should have stuff like that on U.K. tv that would put the point home rather than the liberal nanny state we live in Jamie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abn deuce Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 A good refresher for every driver of any vehicle to watch at least everytime they renew their license. How in the blink of an eye everything changes forever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiketheBike Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 The drink drive ads in the UK have been getting stronger over the years, but that certainly hammers the message home. There really cannot be any excuse, I have driven to pubs/parties in the past and had a few beers and either got a lift, cab or walked home and collected the car later the next day (remember you could still be under the influence the morning after!). For the sake of £30 for a cab is it really worth losing your licence or worse still having an accident.....even if you think you are OK there will always be that doubt in your mind.

Enigma Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 I must confess to have gotten in a car with a drunk driver on many occasions. I don't drink myself though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markheliops Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 Heres an eye popping fact - The biggest killer of teenage girls is: Teenage boys. No, it's not a gimmick - it's fact. At our fire station, we are running an event called Car'n'age. We have youngsters from the age of 15 upwards come into the station. We give them a hard hitting presentation and also talk to them about our personal experience of attending fatal incidents and how it effects us. We finish the day putting 6 of their friends in a car and carry out a mock RTC demonstration. Roof off, etc. By time they go home they have obviously got the message. Whether they remember it is up to them. Markheliops Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
