    And you wonder why the UK has more safest roads then any where in the world.

    They do this type of stuff and show it as often and where ever they can, news, commercials, school.

    Most we do is say dont do it. OR we show the aftermath of a really big crash due to DUI or texting.

    That was well done. It wasn't A-list Hollywood but would you really get the message if Katie Holmes or Kate Hudson was in it?! Good find, will be forwarding to my younger siblings who are OBSESSED with texting!! TY!!

    That is intense, but very efficient. US Driver's Ed needs to stop sugarcoating this stuff and just make them sit down and watch this. VA had a ban on texting, but idiots do it anyway

    i went to high school with a girl who was texting and hit a concrete bridge at 95 with no seat belt. they found pieces of her all over the crash site. its sad, and watching something like this isn't easy, but if it saves a life then its worth it.

    Happy to hear a concrete bridge put a stop to it before she killed someone like it shows in the video.
