We are all drivers. Many of us are driving enthusiasts. Each time we're behind the wheel we make decisions that affect our safety, and the safety of those around us. Sometimes we drive carelessly or even dangerously. We don't always pay 100% attention. Sometimes we take risks we know we shouldn't.
This video was posted by one of our members (The-Ghost), but I think everyone can benefit from watching it. It's powerful, it's graphic, and it holds nothing back. If you drive, I suggest you watch it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xS1enJr49os Please be careful out there. The life you take may not be your own. -Shawn |

OMG what an eye opener. I consider myself a safe driver but I'll definitely re-evaluate my driving habits after this video. Sending the link my friends and relatives as well.

The one video that starts at about 2:00 that has the guy and the girl on the wall and then the rolling car hits them, that was a commercial somewhere, can't remember where though.

The point can go well beyond driving habits... paying attention to your surroundings in general. Stop texting for a minute... I can't stand when I see "texting zombies" all over the place, completely ignoring their physical surroundings. It isn't that important... text when you get to where you're going, and have a free minute.

EVERYONE, regardless of age, can benefit from watching this vid. But hopefully the brutal reality will hit home for those that do watch.
