TV ad attacks 'Safe Speeding'

[Rashika]

You Mainlanders are double hard bastards alright, if it's not flying into the shrubbery in a shower of disintegrating plastic, it doesn't count as a bin.

yeah I think you need to be doing at least the speed limit and damage a whole lot more than just your pride for it to count as a bin really...dont you?

500 - 600 dead kiwi's a year ain't that bad considering our roads, k's travelled and the low IQ of the average NZder. If this Government focused as much attention on the real issues, we'd all be better off.

I laugh at all these ads, especially this one. That bitch that's whinning as the guy drives past is priceless.

Edit: Was the you Riff Raff?

I'd revise the script:

Son:"is that the cop that stopped you dad?"

Dad:" yes son ,I think it is"

Son:"he was a right c**t, wasn't he dad?"

Dad:"yes son he was"

And cop thinks: "heh heh heh, suckerrrrr!"

This ad irritates me on so many different levels. While channel surfing last night after Paradise went down, I caught it consecutively on six different channels. Seethe, fume...

This means the police budget is being used up by the advertising campaign. Net result means no overtime for police and less police on the roads...

Perks of the job - some get cheap roof painting, some get free milk and some get off on dangerous driving charges, fair enough??

I wonder what percentage of 'above speed limit' crashes happen vs. at speed limit? maybe it's safer to drive/ride fast

No worries, go as fast as you want to, 100kph around a right-angle bend is nothing, - UNTIL YA BIN.
Then it's listed as 'speed related crash'.

Rachael Price - civil servant of Wellington is where the advertising buck stops. She talks to the boffins who tell her what the priorities are. Then she schemes up what to do with her big advertising budget. It is not all nicked from Police wages. Much of it is nicked from community Trusts that are supposed to fund projects by non governmental little people like us.

Because of Rachael Price being excessively greedy for more dollars to make the crappest road safety ads in the world a lot more peopl than the viewers lose. If you have a personalised no - plate (? is that a bike thing at all) then you actually paid for Rachaels latest eye candy. Speed ads really get my wick too - feel like training a bazooka at the box, so its lucky I hardly watch it. Which is in no small measure due to Price's antics.

Dad - Isn't that the cop...

To all youz wot moan about roads - it wouldn't matter how good NZ roads were, you would still fall off them!!

Even an auotobahn would be too agricultural for a lot of KBers.

Even if some arsehole has laid a trail of diesel around it?
You can tell us, you're told to make them all "speed was a factor" unless you'll get caught out, right?

I don't have a problem with them getting off. I do have a problem with the lying, snaggle-toothed slag who made it clear she wanted them to speed.

Never got told that at all and speed can be a factor without it being the principal reason.
