Stuff like this is long overdue, its like you hit a biker and they are like.....Don't hit any of those motorcyclists *slap on wrist*

You hit and kill or hurt a motorcyclist you should go to jail.

i know it was a dramatization but that was FUCKED UP. i remember our instructor from the motorcycle safety course explaining that situatuion to be among the most dangerous for bikers and should be approached with caution.

That is good, but has it hit prime time television yet? I have yet to see this commercial...if they are only going to run with it on certain outlets that sucks!! They need to get it out there.

Yeah that is the only way that is MIGHT save some motorcyclists lives...

I'm not happy with it, it wasn't dramatic enough. People need to see the aftermath/reality of the cager's actions, the motorcyclist being taken away in an ambulance as one of his riding buds is upset at the scene. All we see is the brief impact and nothing more, there's more violence on children's programing than there was in that 30 second spot. At least there's something out there that might get the ball rolling regarding awarness for our safety. I guess the only way cagers will take that seriously is if someone of stature is responsible for funding the PSA.
