I am NEVER texting ever again in the car, even while DH is driving!!!!!! Did u notice that the driver was NOT the one texting??? It was the girl in the passenger seat!!!!!



How could texting as a passenger cause an accident though??



It wasn't in the US. The driver is on the right side.



Yes, it wasnt made in the US, it was in Britan

I think its brilliant. I really hope the people who are complaining that it is too graphic learn to understand that its graphic because its reality and that's what these teens need to see.

It's very graphic. Definitely a realistic view of a serious car accident.

Re: TEXTING WHILE DRIVING PSA!!

It is very well done and should be shown to anyone who drives.
On the Today show this morning they were talking about whether or not it should be shown on TV.
The guy they were interviewing suggested it should be on later in the evening when small children are not watching tv - but teens and adults would see it.
I think it HAS to be that graphic to get the message across.

I have a weak stomach too and was able to watch. Some blood - focus on the message.

I never send out a mass email but today I just sent that to 45 people. If it gets around and people watch it this could save lives. I needs to be graphic. I was moved to tears!!!!

That's BS - I was watching the morning news recently and they showed a guy getting plowed down on the road. At least this came with a warning!

There are a few shows on Discover or one of those channels that shows people getting hurt/killed in freak accidents - I presume these shows are for entertainment.

It certainly is graphic but it gets the point across. Even if it scares 1 person to stop texting and driving it's worth it.

That made me Chat Icon . When that poor little girl was saying "Mommy, Daddy wake up" and then they showed the baby Chat Icon Chat Icon

So very disturbing. They should show that video to every person before they are allowed to get their licence.



i agree!! it was disturbing but gets the point across

Re: TEXTING WHILE DRIVING PSA!!

WOW that was scary. But just goes to show how dangerous it is.
