Jef NickersonBefore you watch, I warned you it is graphic. I feel a little light headed after watching it.
From the video’s YouTube page:
The four-minute sequence involves British actors and creative talent — and is part of a larger 30-minute drama produced and directed by Peter Watkins-Hughes an award winning, former BBC TV producer who is also a lecturer for the Documentary Film & Television department at the Newport School of Art, Media and Design in Wales. He got his own students to work on this drama, which was made for — and with — the Gwent Police Department. Mr. Watkins-Hughes says the longer-version of this drama will be shown at schools this year. He is in talks with the BBC to have “COW” (named after the road in the film) – broadcast later this year.

Very realistic. This needs to be shown to new drivers as a requirement for driver training.
I have an idea btw, I offer it for free. Almost all cell phones now have bluetooth connectivity. Put a device in the vehicle that shuts off all cell function until the car is stopped.
I saw it on Fox 25 News At 10 & 11.
o my god. my heart is racing. i expect that it’s very, very effective as a deterrent.
MediaCurves.com just conducted a follow up study with 205 viewers of a Public Service Announcement (PSA) from the U.K. illustrating the dangers of texting and driving. Results showed that the overwhelming majority of viewers (85%) reported that in the last week, they had reduced the amount of text and mobile messages sent while driving as a result of the video.
