Inbound Marketing For Life...Warning This Is Graphic!

This Post Is Not About Inbound Marketing!
Have you ever driven under the influence of alcohol? Have you ever wondered about whether the driver of the vehicle coming at you has had too much to drink? We have posted many different themes on Fridays and this is a new direction once again that has nothing to do with inbound marketing. (although it does qualify as remarkable content) Often we've tried to hit a funny bone (sometimes we've succeeded, sometimes not so much!) but today's post is not funny, it's serious, about a serious issue, drinking and driving.
This campaign was developed by the Australian government, specifically the Transport Accident Commission Victoria, who had the courage to produce and air these disturbing ads starting in 1989. This is a 20 year anniversary retrospective that was put together in 2009.
Why is this posted now? The winter holiday season is upon us and we are celebrating with friends, family, co-workers etc. and often these celebrations include alcohol consumption. Please drink responsibly, and enjoy the holiday season fully. Don't let a tragedy spoil this wonderful time of year. Take a cab, have a designated driver, take public transit...arrive safe.
Some of you may be offended that we've used this blog to promote a safe holiday season, we make no apologies, we believe that this is an important message and if we help only one person with this, it's been well worth it. We really hope that you'll share this with your family, friends, co-workers, peers, associates, colleagues...people, so that we can all enjoy a terrific holiday season.
Again, we warn you prior to playing this video clip that it contains disturbing content of a graphic nature.
