i just realised something else...
young child says to parents: "mum..dad.. wats that lil pinky finger thing mean??"....
Dont think the parents gonna turn around and say "That represents the size of his penis!!"
As stated already, Both the XR6 and the VL were not speeding...
The adds intended affects are up shit creek, just have to read this thread to see how much of a joke it is and how it has affected us 'young' people 'talking our language'...
I think its pathetic. You put images like that on the telly and people will just want to go out and recreate them because they know there mates arnt going to be playing around with there pinkies..
Fact is .. 'X number' of people are going to die on the roads each year.
Its just a matter of whether your lucky enough not to be one of those.
That ad is load of sh*t..... what a waste of taxpayer money....
Why dont they just stick to their no such thing as safe speeding etc etc?
Who the f*ck speeds cos they wanna impress someone? honestly?..... you do it cos it feels good right??? You don't give a sh*t whos watching... burnouts on the other hand is a different story......they're only funny on the street....
Disclaimer - I do not condone this type of driving..
Me waits for Russ to come in and kick some ass.....
Terrible ad...as was mentioned only one of those incidents shown was actually relating to speeding, the rest of it is typical 'hoon' type activity...
It will no doubt appeal where it counts-that is with the voters of the Government that creates that sort of rubbish. Absolute crap.
The correlation between the whole pinky thing and speeding is stupid, they may aswell have done the whole what a wanker with the hand shuffle thing...haha
And I agree 100%, would have been better if the VL was packed with Muzzas hanging out the window at them chicks the car speeds off through the intersection and it gets T-Boned by a Semi...now that would have some impact?....Lol.

you lucky prick, my area is full of snoobs so tryign that is out of the question for me...was she hot but?
They are pretty out of touch aren't they.
I asked a few people on their thoughts of it, and most said the ad made them want to go out and rip a huge skid haha.
(again not that ct or myself condone that sort of activity).
They should concentrate on the "deep" ads. I think the most effective ones are when they show "crash scenes", and peoples friends/family inured/dead due to acts of stupidity are the ones which affect people the most.
hahaha i saw this add twice last night whilst watching CSI. im liek wtf xr6t brunout..sweeettt, then i seen this blue vl.. i jumped out of bed and rang my mate right away, and he had just seent he exact same thing hahaha
they got it heaps exact, the guy trys to go sideways, thinks he is gonna loose it, but then regains it and hes like ohh yeehhhh hahah reminds me of myself back in the early days of owning a vl.. admit it, nearly every person from this forum would have tried that once.. hehe
Carlos
might i add also... they have statistics that more and more P platers die on our roads each year.... keep in mind, a few years back now, P platers only had their reds for 1 year and then they got their full licence, so ofcourse there is more P platers having accidents, because the P plater bracket is now 3-4 years before a full licence is obtained..

In the VL, the guy on the left in the back seat who does the small **** sign. Never knew he was in the ad
i must say i am pretty dissapointed in the ad i think they could of come up with something more effective
We get no funny ads like that in vic. Between the smoking ones and car crash ones, its all just blood, guts and broken bones, then people in wheelchairs and coffins. After all that you got booze and drug buses. This NSW RTA crap is not gonna stop hoons. It is funny though lol
