    this should be on TVNZ

    this was scary when i first saw it.
    i hope this type of ads are placed on TV. but nothing seems to be on TV nowadays about safety on the road, except for the load of shit they play everyday! and yet they complain about awareness! when they can reach twice the no. of people from TV, hell they even got TV in cars now!!!

    Seen this one before, but its pretty good. (if its the one i'm thinking of)
    The only problem with this ad, like all road safty ads is there is a flaw. When it shows the driver looking down the street the first time there is NO biker there but when it replays the action of looking down the street there is a bike there. Why can't they just do this shit right. They are like infomercials when they change facts to make it suit them better. These ads don't get through to people because of these discrepincies(sp?) what they need is an unbaised proply made ad. Or just wait at a spot that is renown for accidents and film a real one. That would send a message home. Or ride around with some paramedics and show some real footage of actual damage that people sustain and make it clear that this is the real deal and not makeup and bullshit. (just my opinion )

    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    All that does is confirm to the great unwashed that you can't see bikes even if you look.
    Excellent, remove the responsibility from the killers.

    Perhaps if they showed the cage driver eviscerated by the forks, it would have more impact.

    That gives me the shivers
    He stops further back in the second clip, you could theorise that the bike is there in the first but it's obscured from the camera by his face.
    It needs to be more gorey to hit home I think- perhaps a leg or two pointing off in an unnatural direction like that acc falling down the stairs ad

    I've always had the opinion that rather than fitting side airbags, driver/passenger airbags they should fit poisoned spikes. You can bet your bottom dollar that cage drivers would drive carefully then for fear of being horribly impaled by such spikes.
    Superdukes. Serving up shame to sportsbikes since ages ago.

    That is a bit scary.
    But. Theres two target audiences there. Bikers and car drivers.
    The rider should have slowed way the fuck down just in case cage driver pulls out. he didnt.

    There was another thread somewhere about Air bags for bikes, this would have been a perfect place for an air bag.
    FINE. This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.

    is it just me or does the biker seem to travelling faster when he hits than when he rides past?

    IMO the one when he hits reminds me of markauckland...

    where opinion holds more weight than fact.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.
