Texting While Driving Video: Commercial Too Graphic For YouTube xtemujin Aug 23rd, 09, 11:35 AM #1 (permalink)
A texting while driving video produced as a public service announcement in the UK has been deemed too graphic for general audiences on YouTube.

The texting while driving commercial has been flagged by YouTube as only suitable for viewers over the age of 18. However, the graphic commercial has inspired some governments to produce similar shock value PSAs of their own.

See the graphic UK texting while driving commercial titled "COW taster 100."

Heck that is a nice clip. The full thing is half an hour long. Has it been released yet?

A forum post should be like a skirt. Long enough to cover the subject material, but short enough to keep things interesting.

This clip should be made readily available on the net.

Yes its graphic but it gets the message across. You could end up like one of those girls if you sms when driving.

PANICLUST
@tumblr

A man is in a hotel lobby heading to ask the clerk a question. As he heads to the front desk, he accidentally bumps into a woman beside him, his elbow to her breast. Both of them were equally startled by the incident but the man proceeded to apologize saying, "Ma'am, if your heart is as soft as your breasts, I'm sure you'll forgive me". The woman followed on to reply: "If your Penis is as hard as your elbow, I'm in room 1221".

who in youtube will deem this too graphic? I think its very informative and should be aired. Not only young ppl do this, many adults text while driving too. Heck, some even went off lane without texting!

i feel that making a call while driving is less dangerous compared to texting while driving.
