Using Mobile Phones while Driving
« on: October 20, 2014, 06:13:57 PM »
This came to me in an email today and is absolutely brilliant. If you have a son or daughter who drives I urge you to show them this video.

A Hong Kong movie theatre asks its patrons to leave their cellphones ON when they enter the movie.
Using that, Volkswagen made an eye opening ad...

Yea that one came out a while ago.  I think it was even discussed here around that time.   Kevin

Good add, but those booked should be fined $800 and loose 6 points, because a proven fact the message is not getting out there

Just spent 10 days in and around Perth. No. 2 son was driving on his "Ls" the whole time with me supervising, but with him being quite competant I was able to spend most of my time observing the other road users. He did about 16 hours of driving.

I did not see a single person on a phone.

I was amazed. Back in here in Vic can't seem to past 10 cars without seeing someone on the phone.
