Very sobering collection of clips.
Should be shown at schools and to young drivers to hopefully make them think a bit more when behind the wheel.

Unfortunely though, I think its one of those clips thats makes more of an impact on those that have been driving for 10+ years as understand a lot more of what can go wrong and have lost that air of invincibility / wont happen to me attitude.

What a revealing video. It covered all aspects from lack of attention, incompetence, total selfishness, attempts at revenge, showing off etc. etc.

I hope it gets widely shown and I also hope that it might save a few lives in the future.

There will be of course those who are too self centred to believe that it applies to them or maybe they just don't care anyway.

The video certainly brings out some home truths!

That is the most horrific,harrowing thing i've ever seen!

The innocent people that were affected by the careless, mostly thoughtless driversi find is the worst part

Certainly brings it home to me

Thank you for posting that, i personally can only see some good coming from as many people watching it as possible

Paul Habgood- you really should watch it buddy!

Since it obviously affected you deeply, don't you think it might just influence the odd irresponsible prat?

Granted the video is harrowing.
But, driving a performance vehicle is all about ( at times) driving / riding very near yours or the vehicle's limits and damn the consequences....

If we are honest, everyone has at one stage or another...

Some people are beyond help I'm afraid, it's like the drink drivers, no matter how many clips and things you drill into them they will always do it thinking it will never happen to them...
Some of those clips were truly horrific.

Pretty hard hitting stuff.

Just shows being in the wrong place at the wrong time, innocent road users and pedestrians minding their own business and getting hit by some **** in a car.

Unfortunately i would say no Les because the 'It wouldn't happen to me' syndrome applies to those sort of people

Not when there's other road users or pedestrians about
