- Thousands of people die every year in crashes related to distracted driving.
That's why cops are out looking for people who text while driving, and that's why they write tickets -- to save lives.
Remember, U Drive. U Text. U Pay.
I was in a car accident a month ago. My mom was driving us home from Starbucks, we were driving 60mph down the highway. My mom was attentive and driving safely. Unfortunately, three teenagers in a truck failed to yield to a stop sign, running right in front of us. We t-boned them, as we had absolutely no time to react. My mom slammed on her brakes as soon as she saw them pull in front of us. Us going 60mph on impact caused their truck to flip over into a ditch, and our car to spin out. The three teenagers survived with absolutely no injuries, while my mom had a concussion and I broke my spine. Paramedics told us that with how bad the impact was, they were surprised it didn't kill us. Teenagers should NEVER drive with more than one friend in the car, as it has been statistically proven that the more friends in a teenagers car, the more distracted they get. Those teenagers who failed to stop at a stop sign almost cost my mom and I's life, I'm even shocked that the teenagers weren't injured themselves despite their vehicle flipping over. It could've been much worse, and I'm glad nobody died- but we very easily could've died. The odds were not in our favor at all but we made it out alive.
happy to know ur mom is safe and you too
im sorry this happened, do you know if your spine will heal?
I'm happy to hear that yall made it out
Talk about unfair. Those teens should have received plenty of jail time at least.
Did the teenagers go to prison? (Honest)
That cop could give me a ticket
horny
Ou thats good 😏
FR THO AWOOGA
Down bad lmao
Social media shouldn't have been made

Her mom: It’s cause of that damn phone!
Me: *wait you’re actually right*
*She k n o w s*
I was involved in a texting and driving accident in (2018) on my way to work and I wasn’t even supposed to live. The doctors were going to pronounce me dead when I got to the hospital. I wasn’t to lucky, I fractured my shoulder blade, lower spine, pelvis in 3 places, left hip and my knee was mangled.
The women that hit me didn’t even check on me, didn’t come near me, didn’t hold my head up in the car. She was trying to drive off but she couldn’t because her car was all busted from the impact. She was only concerned about her car and continued to text message. She tried to get away in to blaming me for the accident and she wasn’t at all upset about what she did to me. The firefighters had to use the jaws of life to get me out of the car and I scared out of my mind to think what was going to happen next. I still have anger and hatred towards the women that hit me. If she had come up to check on me or at all concerned about me, I would of forgiven her for what she did. There’s no forgiveness for that.
I am still blessed to be alive and to tell my story to people. The aftermath of the accident for me is still there .
My left side is unbalanced, I will fall to the ground if I stand on my left side, the cold hurts, my left side is very week, I can’t lift over 36 pounds, I am very cluster phobic in tiny spaces, and my legs are clumsy. I have muscle and nerve damage due to the accident and I have frequent back aches.
I used to be very athletic and was going to return to ice skating but I can’t do any of that because of the accident. Please watch this and take the oath to never text and drive because that text isn’t worth it.
Good luck in recovering
@@lethalexponent6
I’ve particularly recovered but thank you 😊
That's terrible. How some people can be on the road. I replied because I'm an ice skater too. Been a USA Hockey referee for 14 years now. I would be devastated if I wasn't able to keep my balance anymore. I probably couldn't ever forgive the other lady either.
And that woman had the AUDACITY to try to drive off. I hope she got charged for this. Because there's no way that's acceptable. No remorse, all because of a stupid phone. $100-$1000 is apparently worth more than a life you could take because you're selfish and stupid.
I hope you recover to the point you can walk properly again. And push more, maybe get back to ice skating! As a guitarist, I would hate to live life without my arms if I were the receiving or delivering end of drunk or text-ridden driving.
I definitely think that most people who text and drive must have some degree of narcissistic personality disorder. It definitely sounds like this woman did and I'm so sorry for what she did to you.
That went from 0 to 100 way to fucking fast
This ad gets the message across really well. Had the policeman caught this girl texting and driving, it would have saved her life and many others.
Don't wanna!!
The problem is these videos actually stopped playing, why?
@@cedricksamaniego9146 don't you see? The cop would have arrested that truck driver was speeding!
@@minogamesfan9203
What?
I was explaining that this video stopped playing for everyone to see.
If this video played back to back, then hopefully more people would get that it's really bad to be a distracted driver on the road.
@@cedricksamaniego9146 not that, that truck driver!
she ain't smiling now !
Yep she should never been texting or driving and I would never happened because if I was a cop I would give her ticket to I agree with the cop
Yes. It is better to have one's day ruined with a ticket than to be dead. At least one is alive to be upset about it. If it's an important text, one should either pull out of the road and park, and/or have a passenger take your phone and read your text and answer it.
Um are they all dead or the one with the phone?
I was in a car accident but we weren’t on our phones I just mentioned a work place and the driver and me looked at it kinda dumb to be honest lol
Would you rather lose a minute of your life or your life in a minute?
Good Wisdom. 😉
I've got hit a few times by people texting and driving. Once or Twice when I was walking.
And once sitting at a Stop Light 🚦 by a young kid who forgot to look up.
And another time or two. But don't remember all the details any more. But still suffer from all the injuries.
I saw this ad when I was about 12 long before I could drive but this ad almost 8 years on scared me enough as a kid to not even so much as touch my phone while driving at almost 20. Guess the ad worked 😅
People need to understand that a text is not worth your life or the lives of those around you, it's shameful how much wisdom people lack these days. I think they should suspend the license of anyone who drives.
I think that too
Are they being stupid cuz she text and drive and the truck run them over that my favorite part
No, the truck driver was not paying attention.
I truly despise people looking at their phones while driving. I hate it so much, that I posted a video of my own. youfa episode 38. Please watch. This message needs to be louder and stronger. The calm, mild approach isn't working. Thank you for posting this video.
exact same thing happened to me, just because you do and once and your comfortable and nothing happens, doesn’t mean nothing will!!
I was involved in an accident on May 29th I was looking up a the stats of a Ford F-150 on my phone when I crashed into a 2010 Chevy Equinox. I hit the car at 35-40 mph. There was a 1 year old child in the car. He was crying, the family sustained no injuries while my two legs were bruised. I was lucky to be alive as well as the family. From now onwards I will longer be driving the car while drive with a phone on hand.
Good that you realise your mistake 👍🙂
0:13 truck: out of my way
Car: ouch
Texting while driving is just as bad as driving while intoxicated, plus they should've worn their seatbelts.😢
That made me happy for some reason
This is what I do when the driver in front was texting. I start a road rage and if they deny they were texting, I hit them. Then I deny what I did
If you text while driving, one way or another, you will be stopped.
Pray it's by the cops.
Wtf is wrong with society
Ooh what WHA WHA!!!

At least it shut those idiots up.
Does anyone know if these commercials are acting?
That truck straight up ran the stopsign too lmao, is this Florida?
No it didn't
Ever heard of an intersection where two signs have to stop in the other two don't genius you do realize they're not all four ways
My female boss has had numerous goes at me for not answering my phone whilst driving even though it's in a hands free set up. I've told her she can say what she likes for I'll never answer the phone whilst I'm driving. I'll only answer the phone in the car when I'm parked somewhere and never whilst driving. I get a phone call or a message and there's a reminder that someone called or texted so there's no problem getting back to them at all. I turn the phone to silent when I'm driving so calls or messages coming in don't distract me at all. But today's kids and many adults are ruled by their phone terrified if they don't answer or text back right away then someone maybe angry with them or worse still stop liking them. Oh what a tragedy. The worse thing manufacturers ever did was make phones compatible with cars because it can lead to disaster and often has simply because too many people can't put their phone down.
You are very well disciplined for that. You value your life over texts and calls from your workplace. I am the very same, not for a second will answer a call or text while I am behind the wheel, if I want to play music, I will do so before I drive, and considering also being a motorcyclist, the amount of people I see when I'm stopped at red lights or moving on their phones makes my blood boil. In fact, I nearly lost it on a person on their phone whilst at a red light. I was ready to smash his window out. It would turn out better for him to be stopped by police than deal with me...
More people need to follow your example!
@@aestheticcruise8807 Yes but the police don't confiscate people's phones when they catch them using the phone whilst driving. I think the reason is because the authorities WANT people to use their phones whilst they drive as it's a good way of raising state revenue. If they confiscate the phone that's one less person to catch and the idea of saving lives?, well no actually as money is more important. I know that's a very cynical way of looking at it but a cynic is what an idealist calls a realist.

NGL this ad funny as hell when you see the long version
Where's the long version?
@@CreationForeverMinistries im not sure but just lookup "texting while driving skit long version"
best commercial!
You mean PSA, it's not selling anything
Also they need to pull people over from filming while driving
Cop is Hot!!!!
The only reason they died was because a truck hit them and the amount of times the car rolled
Stay off your phone while driving if you text you drive you pay the price
Also giving a ticket wont stop people from texting only delying the inevitable
Dude are you blind? ...did you not see the phone in her hand before it happened?
You can die from impact easily. One hard whiplash (which can easily be done by being hit by a car typically over speeds of 50mph) can internally decapitate you, can cause internal bleeding, glass can deeply wound you to the point of bleeding out, the metal of the crushed car can crush you to death, there's countless ways you could die even without being hit by a truck or rolling out. All it takes is one hard blow
People like you is the reason why shampoo has instructions.
No you’re not .. I see idiots 1000s a day texting and driving.. Never seen a cop pull one over Ever
I know that ad from the newgrounds...
When are we going to be smart enough to understand that's our children we are putting behind the wheel when we get their first car or they get their learner's permit and so on and so forth make it a law they cannot start driving unless their car is Bluetooth enabled that it could handle the incoming messages and everything and they don't have to take their eyes off the road for a split second because the same way it takes a split second to get pregnant it takes a split second to take away that life so please you guys make all these laws and all these rules make that an official law you're not able to drive at all until your car is Bluetooth enabled and that's the only way that you get to drive because if you leave it on the phone and you take your eyes off the road you're gone I don't care how many commercials you have they're not going to listen until it becomes a law how many more kids are we going to bury how many more families are going to cry we have smartphones so make smart decisions don't expect your child to be the one to do the smart decision they have to have some kind of Bluetooth device in their vehicle that listens to the messages and reads it out my phone every time a message comes in it tells me who's it from and what it says if it's an emergency they can pull over if not make it a rule you cannot get a cell phone until your first four years of driving by yourself and not getting into an accident you have to come home to be able to message anyone and watch how fast the cemeteries start being less filled with our children passed a message forward and God we trust one land and one nation under God God gave us our children let's not send them back in a rush delivery because of a stupid driving accident
Texting while driving, you'll be lucky if it's a cop that brings you to a stop.

I’d hate to witness THAT!
hey is anyone here cus of caddicarus or is it just me
Did this also traumatize someone as a kid.
I was driving the truck. I was on instagram
Can you please get off the phone while you drive?
I believe this is just virtual video right?
According to the data, texting and driving is equivalent to having 4 beers and then proceeding to drive
My dad texts and drives.
Love how it goes straight into copaganda. Like if phones turned off automatically over the speed of 10mph she also could have been saved but we don't make commercials advocating for that while advocating for not texting and driving. It's not even an argument for cops to be around, they're just inserting cops as good with no argument as to why other solutions can't fix the problem in a less intrusive and expensive way.
If a truck was driving on that road, there wouldn't a stop sign, it would be a main street intersection with a stop light
Not correct. In many areas, especially areas not as developed, there will be stop signs at intersections instead of traffic lights. Although I do believe that's dangerous and needs to change, as my severe car accident happened at a highway intersection where teenagers didn't stop at a stop sign. It's been an issue where I live, that intersection kills countless people because people don't pay attention to stop signs. It almost killed me. I believe that had there been traffic lights instead of a flimsy stop sign, maybe those teenagers would've actually stopped. It seems people obey traffic lights more often than stop signs, for whatever reason
Don't crossword and drive
Who is the driver girl 😍💕
Is that Natalie Imbruglia
Hahahahahahahahah 💖 💙 💜 💚 💛 it must be fate... we need more of these on the road, make an hilarious video. It's already 2018 and more people are distracted than ever. This must be the goal that everyone has right?
Years ago, my mom was in a car crash when another driver slammed into her minivan when making a bad turn, I'm very my mom survived and she wasn't hurt
DOE
imagine
And don't expect the cops to enforce it because I've seen many of them texting and driving on the phone while I'm driving next to them we need to take charge of our own child's future
When are we going to be smart enough to understand that's our children we are putting behind the wheel when we get their first car or they get their learner's permit and so on and so forth make it a law they cannot start driving unless their car is Bluetooth enabled that it could handle the incoming messages and everything and they don't have to take their eyes off the road for a split second because the same way it takes a split second to get pregnant it takes a split second to take away that life so please you guys make all these laws and all these rules make that an official law you're not able to drive at all until your car is Bluetooth enabled and that's the only way that you get to drive because if you leave it on the phone and you take your eyes off the road you're gone I don't care how many commercials you have they're not going to listen until it becomes a law how many more kids are we going to bury how many more families are going to cry we have smartphones so make smart decisions don't expect your child to be the one to do the smart decision they have to have some kind of Bluetooth device in their vehicle that listens to the messages and reads it out my phone every time a message comes in it tells me who's it from and what it says if it's an emergency they can pull over if not make it a rule you cannot get a cell phone until your first four years of driving by yourself and not getting into an accident you have to come home to be able to message anyone and watch how fast the cemeteries start being less filled with our children passed a message forward and God we trust one land and one nation under God God gave us our children let's not send them back in a rush delivery because of a stupid driving accident
Manifesto Texting Whlie Driving
this is like fuckin DOE ad holy shit
😂
That's creepy
i love this commercial lol !!
I’m telling my mom a lesson
Why Bixby and Siri exist.
POV at the truck: why can’t I see. oh I find someone to help me- *le crash*
Texting and driving is my right
Driving isnt a "right" it's a privilege
Also the trucker should be paying attention as well also pulling someone over for texting and driving only delys the event
If someone fails to yield, the party with the right of way (the truck) would have no time to react. You have less than a second to come to a full stop, which is impossible. If you're running past stop signs you can't expect someone to magically defy the laws of physics.. 🤦♂️
I’m driving right now and still about to tell you how fucking pointless and ignorant this ad is.
You literally just called yourself a dumbass without deliberately saying it
Did they all die or jus the texter
Dunno
Lmaooo
