Title: Mistakes road ad campaign
Post by: Jim on June 13, 2016, 09:13:34 PM

Just noticed this new ad campaign from the New South Wales Road and Traffic Authority...very powerful ad to slow down on the road, making it apparent you cannot predict what other drivers will do and everyone can make a simple mistake which, unless you are prepared for, can end in tragedy.

Am I dreaming, or is the guy who pulled out a kiwi on holiday?  ;)

Thanks Jim for the link, I saw this ad for the first time today on our TV and it really hit home, makes you sit up and take notice.

Des.

I see what the problem was. These guys were driving on the wrong side of the road.

It's a kiwi advert. We slowed it down for you Aussies.

LOL :) So Australia is getting TV ads from NZ now (and at least a year behind as well!).

So first model kits, and now TV ads? Is this part of a plan for world domination.
Quite an ad though. The "texting" ad was a bit rougher, so hopefully more effective.
