1961 HORRIFIC DRIVER'S EDUCATION FILM

As horrific as this is, it probably should be shown to all young drivers.

Heck, we could all learn a thing or two. -

I watched it and It made me do some thinking on how I drive.

as "educational" as it might be, films presenting dead people in this way shouldn't be on the sift in my opinion.

I somewhat agree. I thought about posting this for about a week.
But is is important for all to take a look. Even as a reminder. It could save your life or someone you love.

This used to be used in the classrooms back in the day. Most of the accidents were from operator error.


Today we have a false sense of safety in our cars. We are safer but still many are killed.



The other day a girl live streamed while driving and was having fun, as teens do. She lost control and killed her sister who was sitting in the back seat,

If her class were showed a truthful representation of what can happen. I would like to think that the probability of her accident would have been less?

*snuff. This clearly doesn't belong here.

And @bobknight33, that idiot girl that murdered her own sister was allegedly not only streaming but also was quite drunk. It seems pretty clear that responsibility was not her strong suit, she was a ward of the state for years due to irresponsible behavior. It's unlikely that she didn't know she was being totally irresponsible, her first reaction after the accident is to say she's going to prison for life, she knew.

I respectfully disagree. It is important to see what the result of ones action, as grim as it is.

What about documentaries of wars where you see dead bodies? Are these to be consider as you say.... snuff?

The girl was in a moment of foolishness and not thinking what could be. She will never get that distracted while she drives again.


If the girl had watched such a educational film as this she might have done different.

You can't deny that after watching this, that this makes you stop and think about being more cautious and or attentive about driving.

If the documentaries are focused on the dead bodies like this one is, probably.

The girl seemed to be in a lifestyle of unthinking foolishness. She will only not drive drunk again because she probably won't ever legally drive again. I doubt even this will teach her, some people simply cannot learn.

These films did little when they used to be the norm in drivers training classes, that's why they stopped using them. They simply weren't effective.

I can deny that this film made me think about being more cautious, because I'm not a moron that doesn't understand the outcome of a bad wreck, having seen a few in person, so beating me over the head with 'wrecks can kill you' is just boring. When I saw these as a teen, while learning to drive, I was titilated by the gore, but not effected otherwise. Most teens don't fully grasp that dangerous things are dangerous to them, and a large percentage are actually drawn to the dangers.

If humans were rational and only irresponsible by accident out of naivete, you would be right, but they just aren't. You have to be pretty brain dead to not grasp that high speed car wrecks can kill without a filmstrip telling you.
