A powerful DUI video

[Mike Robinson]

I was emailed a link to an Australian video about drinking and driving and I thought I would share it here.

I'll say. If that doesn't make you think twice nothing will.

It worked for me... not a bad video and a good reminder as the upcoming holidays approach us.

Very well made video, drives home the message. Wish their was something like this broadcast in Canada. We have reduced the impaired driving rate over the years but much more remains to be done. Thanks for posting that.

Wow. Just Wow. Speechless. Amazing video. Going to make my 19 year old watch the whole set of them.

They need to air those in the USA. But they might be considered too gruesome for some people, so you won't see them here.

DUI laws in the US have been a joke all along.
12 time repeat offenders, in other countries they would be jailed by the third offense. They ought to make a video about that.
Tragedy doesn't faze a drunk.

Heart wrenching video to say the least. You don't see them as graphic as that here in Canada.

Re: A powerful DUI video

Many of the videos that I used in safety presentations came from Australia or New Zealand.

Folks, and producers, don't seem to mince words, or images, there.

I have often said, it should be in no way POSSIBLE to get a 4th DUI.

Sad to say that in Minnesota anyway, the real heavy DUI offenders have literally dozens of convictions. They get out of jail and drive. No license, no insurance, impaired to the gills.

Re: A powerful DUI video

What great composition. Really brings home the reality of the consequences of DUI. Got a little choked up watching that. My two sons will be watching this.

When I was 18 I was a passenger in a Jimmy with 3 others. We had all been partying and the driver, my best friend that I had known since kindergarten, was drunk. Crashed into a tree and he died instantly. The other three of us were badly shaken up but not seriously injured. That incident changed my life and have not had a drop of alcohol in over 30 years. I have no tolerance for anyone that drinks while under the influence. You should not get a second chance (opportunity?) to injure or kill someone, let alone, a third or forth.
