Really grim video but makes you really sit back and think about your driving.

Yep, hopefully none of us are wreckless behind the wheel, but some of those ads show you how just a momentary lapse of concentration for even a second can cause something very nasty.

Was close to tears watching it , especially when the guy shunted the 4x4 at the lights and the little kid said "mummy"................

I just gave my 18 month old son a big hug when it finished!!

Its the music that gets you aswell? Its like the film Armageddon!! that turned me into a blubbering wrek!

Gave up driving fast many years ago. But i still feel i never put others at risk. Some of these drivers these days are mental. I think its got a lot to do with them thinking "death" means " would you like to start another game"

Strikes me it was a lot of poor driving and speed was just a compounding factor. I have had 5 accidents in my life. 4 while stationary and the last at 20 mph.

Chilling, and as an "oldie" I've seen more than a few of my friends/colleagues end up this way.

I once got blamed for a kid hitting a tree head-on, dead instantly, they said I'd forced him off the road. But obviously Scoobs are wider tracked than a Mk.I Fiesta
Once investigated they confirmed I'd locked up entering the corner... and he hadn't even braked Like I could be bothered "racing" a standard 1300 Sadly he had tried to keep up and lost it. Makes me wish I hadn't stopped as it only caused me no end of grief, and nearly a nasty prosecution.

Be careful out there.

Jesus, that put a lump in my throat, especially the little boy saying mummy.
Didnt like the lad squashed up against the girl on the wall, you could almost feel the impact
