TAC - Never (Australia)

A father talks about his daughter who was killed when her partner crashed after drinking and driving. Again, this is one of those new fangled TAC ads that move away from shock tactics and gore and more towards emotional blackmail.

Did he drive right into a parked truck? Sorry, but while the rest of the video is fine, that part just truck me as unintentionally funny. They couldn't have had him run a stop sign or something a little more realistic?

@Kukapetal Well, he is pissed! Anything could happen! ;)

The sad part is that people like wuzzle who obviously need to get it the most are the ones that think that it is funny and end up being the statistic on the side of the road dead or causing some innocent family to die or lose a loved one while he lives on.

@astephwil I'm not sure you understand. While my comments on the adverts are satirical and somewhat tongue-in-cheek, I understand the message behind them, am a great supporter of road safety, and have argued at length with idiots replying to the comments on them who are all about "YEAH FUCK THESE PIGS I WANNA GO AS FAST AS I CAN!" - I hate people like that and I want to live in a world where people aren't that retarded.

So, the more adverts, the better :)

emotional blackmail??? wuzzle, i know im watching all these vids on your channel rather than on TACVictoria (actually, im just interested now what way you'll spin the ad), but i really pray you never have to suffer in this way even tho the experience would smarten you up to how real these ads feel, how necessary they are, and how only shocking people to their core seems to have any effect on ensuring they change their behaviours.

@kfetter16 Dude, it's called satirical review. If you honestly believe that I'm taking the piss out of road accident victims then you're beyond help.

cause thats what these drivers are... bloody idiots...

[Sputters]

TAC needs to move to the US for like..4 months...that'll shake some fuckers up...

looked more like her grandfather than dad

[sliat1981]

if that had really happened it the crash they showed, she would not have a head left

[Jakiirod]

omg i am so mad at her dad did he just let his daughter's drunk boyfriend drive her like that? surely he knows hes had some drink?

@wuzzlevideos

How drunk do you have to be to drive at full speed right into a huge stationary object you could obviously see coming from quite a ways away on what looks like a residential street? XD

I want some of whatever they were drinking at that party!

I will of course, call a cab afterward ;)

"The new Hyundai Accent, contact your local dealer today- OH WAIT, NO! IT'S A DRINK DRIVING ADVERT!!!!!"
