They should play this in the US, there's enough meaningless violence on TV already, might as well use graphic images to get a good message across for a change.

I agree with you Sharon, though i dont believe reality is really wanted by the viewership here.. (Sorry for the unintended pun)..

It's graphic allright..

Sharon, this is an idea that could get the point across yet dealing with this in your life would change you forever!

It can't happen to me is how most probably feel but be with a family who had this happen and it is real.

That's pretty strong, but strong can get the message across.

When this happens to people it is just like "Humpty Dumpty". The pieces are never able to be put back together again. Everything changes. So sad.

Chilling. It should be required viewing prior to being issued a driver's license.

Sharon,

First, if the photo you have as your avatar is a photo of you, then your absolutely beautiful.

We live in a time where shock television gets allot of attention. I remember taking a drivers education class, way, way back in high school. The driving instructor had us watch a movie called, Death on a Highway. The movie was of real accidents, all the gore, dead and dismembered bodies, and the tragic results. It's a movie that I still remember today.

I think this video is more than approbate given the vast numbers of stunt drivers I see every day on out roads..

This will be a must see for my 16 year old who is just getting his license.

Thanks.

Not wanted by the viewership here? We are the ones who can benefit the most. It's photos like this on an LE forum that keep me aware of the carnage when all of the numbers come together in the wrong place.

There but for fortune go you or I .... and I will openly state that I am lucky to have survived a few trips close to the edge .. by dumb luck .. not skill.
