This video was put out to promote safe driving. WARNING!!! It can be disturbing to watch. I debated on posting it but I decided to anyway. It let me realize that maybe I should slow it down and pay more attention when I am driving.

Thanks A.B.B., I drive a semi, have for 35 years and have seen lots of stuff like this in my travels around the country. THIS is something every kid learning to drive needs to watch before they think their s#%t dont stink and they are immortal. There is a clear message in this video and I think everyone can get something from it!

Crazy how when you're young, you don't think it can happen to you. I know I was a psychopath when I drove. Then one night reality hit when we rolled a truck going 70. Lucky for both of us,we walked away. Now I rush it every now and then, but nothing like when I was a kid. Thanks for posting the video. They should show something like that to every kid in drivers Ed. The "gory" movies just aren't that bad anymore.
 

Video was very well done and makes its point. Sort of felt my stomach "sink a bit". I remember the fiery toll booth crash. It happened in 2008 on the Atlantic City Expressway in NJ...The driver may have had a fatal seizure. He died but his wife received only minor injuries....
 
Thank you for sharing this video ABB :cheers:I think it should be shown at every school in the 11th grade, some of the young guns don't have a glue and forget that driving is a privilege.
A few years back I had a young gun pass me and my two son's in a curve "no passing Zone" and he stopped for gas and I said something to him about it and he just laughed and said something smart, He did not know I drive by his house everyday, I told his parents and they thanked me and if the story I was told was true they took the car and traded it for a ford ranger. Back in the day my uncle would have pulled his but out of the car and bent him over his knee's and spanked him right there on the spot... and then the parents would have thanked my uncle and gave the smart a$$ another good one... Watch that video real close young guns, this is reality.
 
posted this on my facebook for all to see, that's some really heavy stuff, i was in an accident the day after i got my license.....i rearended an old lady, did 5000 dollars in damage to her car, thank god it was only minor and not something like the stuff in this video......that day was my first day in a standard lol, i havent been able to drive one decently at all since....
 
thanxs for helping spread the video around about safe driving hopefully everyone will get it
 
I had some crazed Yuppie try to pass me on an exit ramp, and then cut back onto the highway. He clipped the front of my truck and rolled it. I used up one of my lives on that crash!
