They're hard hitting that's for sure, but i fear people are becoming immune to these now.

Yeah... people are getting de-sensatised to gore shock ads.

This ad gets to me the most. If there was going to be an ad that would influence me to drive slower of more carefully, this would be the one.

Like, this one has the potential to get me teary when I watch it, and think about it while I'm watching it.

This one hits home I think.

This one is good. Fairly light hearted but clever.

But at the end of the day, we shouldn't need ads like this to open peoples eyes to what can happen on the roads. Common sense and logical thinking should be all that is needed.

Problem is, I think you need to have put yourself in one of those situations depicted, that could potentially have ended tragically but didn't, to really get the full impact.

Kids getting their licenses aren't going to have that experience to relate to. They already know people die on the road from speeding, drinking, etc but we all know that doesn't stop them doing it.

It takes that personal connection to make you take a step back and think "****, that could be me!", which is something you only get from being close to potential tragedy yourself.

At least that's what I reckon :p
