You know... I'd rather watch this stomach turning video, than to see it in real life.

I live in Vancouver Canada. I work downtown. I'd really like to slap this video in the face of typical drivers I see here.

Eh. I think it'd be good to force teenagers to watch it.

That said, I can't watch this one all the way through.

HOLY CRAP. wow. this is really really sad. It makes me never want to step foot into a car. I mean, the fact knowing its not always your fault, and seeing the stupidity of other drives. This video really gets the point through.

thank you.

Good post, took the gloss right off of American safety campaigns by comparison.

I really do not want to get into it. My one time getting banned on this forum was for posting the story. All I can say is that I am lucky I learned an easy lesson and kept myself, friends, and car in one piece.



I deleted my previous post, I really dont want to get into it.

Wow. Yeah, really intense. I think all kids should have to watch this in drivers ed, and once a month after that. I've lost a friend from someone elses stupidity. This hits home.
