- "Just look at the way she drives-all confused and overwhelmed and driving into potholes. What a useless and stupid woman!" - adweek.com
I do not own this ad, it's 50 years old, I'm claiming fair use.
If they made commercials like this nowadays, I would never click on the "skip ad" button.
Me too! I would rewind many times and download it!
waw youre so funny
that was terrifying, i'm never gonna let my wife drive AGAIN
You let her drive???
YOU have a wife???
They over did the dramatic music just a tad.I was expecting her to get carjacked by the Zodiac killer.
Finally a company that understands women!
Craig Noah wooooahhhh, sarcasm?
Well they must've changed their position in recent decades then, since being the only company to have female blimp pilots, so.
Lol ikr
@@mariareynolds6711 i don’t think he’s being sarcastic
If I had a dollar for every pixel that camera has, I'd have FIVE dollars.
I didn't take the commercial as saying women can't drive - I took it as meaning that the safety of the woman in your life is more important than how long the tire lasts.
I hope she sees this, bro
They should debut this ad on TV again just for the helluvit :)
I could hear the reeees from the moon lmao
LOL! omg I laughed so hard! When they 1st showed the woman it was as if "OH NO SHE'S GUNNA CRASH IT!" lmao xD then when she gets there its like a sigh of relief "aww she made it"
i'm a girl and this is good. when traffic's awful, i roll my windows down and people let me through cause they think i'm a bad driver LOL
LOL oh hell no!!! This is the most hilarious commercial I've EVER seen & I'm a lady. I've watched this like 10 times & can't stop laughing. Uh oh, here comes a pothole ahhhhhhhhhhh....
This isn't really sexist at all. Back when this advert was made, most cars did not have power steering, and hydraulic anti-lock brakes were also somewhat new and rare in cars. This is to say nothing of the total lack back then of all-wheel drive, limited-slip differentials, and other mechanisms to maintain traction on wet or snowy roads. Controlling (what were back then) much heavier vehicles on the road with those older systems and bad weather conditions took significant muscles and skill, and tires are the best way to make up for that lack of skill. Technology has changed cars, but the tires you have on still make a huge difference in safety.
i totally agree, (the woman therm for the time abliged) the right tyre can make all the difference in a cars perfomance
50/50 on the power steering, ABS didn’t exist, all wheel drive was exotic, but limited slip differentials were alive and well everywhere. You’d be surprised… the cars weren’t heavier then. They may look it, but there is so much over-engineered junk packed into cars today, they weigh more for their size than cars of 50 years ago.
During my years of driving in Miami I have been hit from behind six times and been totalled twice as a reult. Five were non American woman drivers and one was a male chinese tourist yelling out his window at the car beside him. He told the cops his foot hit the gas by mistake. My favorite was the young Brazillian girl who fender bended me and seemed unconcerend as she told me " our cars, they just go kiss kiss"
Your results may vary.
Stereotypes are based on something…
Based and Redpilled
that's exactly what it sounds, looks, and feels like when i drive.
"LOL OMG ALL THESE CONFUSING SIGNS AND LIGHTS AND ROADS OMG"
If my woman made me eneough quality sandwiches then I would consider letting her drive down the street, with me in the car... but THIS!? This is just madness!
Quality sandwich 😂
That was so extreme, I felt adrenaline in my blood, because letting a woman drive a car is as dangerous as....(Borat's voice) LETTING A WOMAN DRIVE A CAR. VERY DANGEROUS
Borat: Look! There is woman in car! Maybe we stop her and have sexy time with her?
Driving instructor: You cant do that. A woman has the right to choose who to have sex with.
Borat: WHAT!?
Driving Instructor: Yeah, I know. Isn't that terrible?
This is not an add just a short documentary.
Finally. A company with truth in advertising. LOL :)~
forget the sexism.... who why would you ever put the word glass in the brand of tires?

It's actually Polyglas, with one 's'. Glas, not glass. Understand?
@@ccncate what is the definition of "glas"?
Whichever marketing genius came up with that wasn't too *sharp*. 😏
@@dolst Probably the most sold muscle car tire of all time is hardly a failure....
"when a woman's at the wheel, Polyglass means more than just mileage" wow, that's great.
Hilarious! An updated version would have her on the cell phone and applying eye-liner using the rear-view mirror. Ever notice that, when you get into your car after your wife drives, if you check the rear-view mirror, you're staring right back at yourself?
You guys can laugh all you want. Truth is Polyglass tires have saved billions of women's lives. It's true, look it up.
+larrybagina Do you have any idea how big a billion is?
Are there even a billion polyglass tires?!
It's. A. JOOOOOOOOKKKKKKKKE
Are there even a billion women drivers?..........good god let`s hope not!
YOU IDIOT. sexist bratt.
I remember being in the car when my mom was driving. We came to a controlled intersection. She turned right on red legally. As we were turning in the intersection, a woman turning left from the other side hit our door. Then she said, "You hit me, I didn't hit you!" To which I replied, "Oh, that's right. Our car drives sideways!" She hit our left side passenger door. Yep, we drove into her. Uh huh. Well, they might have them today, but back then I had never seen a car that could go sideways. We struck the front bumper with our side door is what she was trying to say. Nothing against female drivers but that woman wasn't all there in the head.
ahhh, and as soon as the big, strong man shows up, he takes the wheel so the little woman stays safe and the car doesn't end up in more potholes. love it.
As a woman I kinda agree. The way he says, "When a woman's at the wheel" is so sexist at first, but then the ad plays on her fears and general uselessness at changing a tyre on her own. Even if every woman could, doing so on the side of the road late at night just makes all the opportunistic rapists driving past wanna pull up and say, "Need help?"
Assuming that a rapist would definitely get what he wants is also sexist. If the woman knows how to deal with sudden male aggression, the would-be rapist is completely out of luck. Women who lose to men are just unaware or lazy.
@@FemaleBehemothNo9 dude....
@@gindaburra No.
Ignoring that this is 9 years old, I would say I agree too. Especially considering that this was at a time when you couldn't just call for help right there on the side of the road. I don't doubt that a woman could manage on their own, but if I had the choice, I damn sure wouldn't want my wife or mom stranded on the side of a road- at night- in the early 70's- without a phone.
@@FemaleBehemothNo9 Are you mentally challenged?
50% difference in upper body strength means, that the woman would have to be a professional fighter to really stand a chance against an avrage man.
And even then it would still depend on her luck, there was a female wresling champ who (a few years ago) started insulting some random dude.
She said she could beat his ass, and so, he accepted the challange, which, I can understand, but I think it's not cool of him.
And he, and avrage Joe, beat her by a mile, it was not even a real fight, he had better reach, was faster and stronger.
It was honestly painful to watch, so yeah, I think people should be careful.
Even if it's unlikly to happen, it still could, so what you said there, is full on bulls__t.
I love how it has that intense orchestra music like a lot of other things from back in the day
Seriously, you expect Shaft, Starsky and Hutch, and Stone and Keller from The Streets Of San Francisco to be chasing this perp. 🤣🤣
I can't believe she even found her way to the airport--at NIGHT! What was this husband thinking, not catching a cab? Her inevitable death is on his hands.
Deborah, it wasn't as dangerous to go out at night back then. There were no carjackings or many drive by shootings then and curfews were enforced back then--at least where I lived.
+Mark Muffs someone completely missed what she was saying
the ad is saying women are precious and we want them to be safe. it doesn't make claims they don't know how to drive
'but when your wife is behind the wheel'
in context?
I think this is from the mid-late sixties...and as a woman I laughed my ass off...thanks for posting:)
Oh, and you should feel very secure having your loved ones driving about on PolyGlas bias tires. I mean, forget the fact that steel belted radials completely drove them from the market over a generation ago!
If all that shit was flashing at me as fast as it was in that commercial, I'd be fucking confused too!
What do you do when your wife's watch breaks? Don't buy her a new one, there's a clock on the oven!!
Back when guys job was to protect and care for his wife and children
Back when only 1 job was enough to raise a family and children.
Hmm...does anyone know if this product works as advertised?? I'm not a woman but I AM Asian. ;D
Not all women are bad drivers, but when you encounter a bad driver, 80% of the time it's a woman behind the wheel.
Just truth.
Driving is just, like, so stressful and confusing! All that stopping and starting and those signs! Golly gee, I don't know how you boys do it.
This is hillarious! Scoot on over honey, glad ya got here…but time to let the man drive! The Suspenseful Hitchcock like music 🤣
well done finding this ad, it made me laugh!
sometimes i sneak out of my kitchen and go drive in the rain while my husband is asleep.
Women behind the wheel of a car: COMPLETE SENSORY OVERLOAD
Ah the good ol' days. When people weren't afraid to tell the truth
The only truth is that men have felt superior for centuries just because of a stupid book called bible which was written by a another man. Man dont suffer half of what women suffer.
Not sexist at all. The ad condoned safety in general, it placed the values that men and children and society had over women, the mother or wife was a special person of the family unit, and Polyglas tires allowed her to change lanes safer and stop faster. Who wants their mother driving in rainy weather or bumpy roads with a terrible tire, that may cause her to be involved in an accident. Not sexist at all in my opinion, just promoted safety
See that's what I was thinking too!
diver362 The mother or wife was more special than the husband or children? Um...yeah, sure, whatever...
I said that the mother or wife was a special part of the family unit. Men, children and the rest of society in general valued the role of the mother. If you have ever seen "Happy Days" or "Leave it To Beaver" and similar titles, one can relate the social values surrounding the rise of the nuclear family in the 50s-60s in relation to the importance of women. The mothers in those shows were always seen as an important aid to child rearing, and not to mention they played an important role in keeping the family together. The majority had 24/7 jobs being stay at home moms, along side any career that some may have chosen to part take. So yeah, women and mothers were and are special people which is is why they needed to have Polyglas tires.
Correct. Those days if she had an accident there was no cell phone and, to be honest, even today many women can't replace a punctured tire.
It also depicts her as like a frightened child barely able to comprehend the barrage of flashing signs and signals. Oh me oh my! Thank GOD my husband is here *instantly scoots over*
Oh no not driving alone! All those signs, bright lights, and noises! Im so confused and emotional because of my baby making things!
Im sorry but I laughed so hard at the sheer stupidity of this Ad.
I half expected to see Jamie Summers pop up to the rescue with that music.
She drove perfectly, and that is just plain sexist, literally just sexist. Nothing else, it's also a very rude steryotype that all woman are bad drivers, not that there aren't bad woman drivers, but men can be bad drivers too, and woman can be good drivers.
Can *womEn* be good spellers too? Just curious.
You're actually offended by this? See, this is why women get a bad rep. Way too goddamn whiny. Just laugh at it for fuck's sake. It's hilarious.
This's coming from a fellow woman, ofc.
Shipoopiism right like dont take it personal its a joke😐😐
god i could imagine! it must be so hard for this women to drive alone, at night, while making a sandwich! i dont blame her for her troubles
Did anybody else read this as "The Most SEXIEST Ad of All Time"? The whole time I was watching it I was thinking, "There's NOTHING sexy about this ad!"
In this day and age she would just text the husband "Take a taxi home, I'm busy"!
FUCKING TRIGGERED!
Wouldn't it be cheaper just to outlaw women driving?
Hi, Mr. “Rum and Coke,” you realize that men drive more riskier than women, get in more accidents, receive more DUIs & other violations, and insurance companies have more trust in women as a result of these facts, right? Lmao. So to answer your question, no, it would be cheaper to outlaw men driving.

@@KG-jd9jw Men get in less accidents per mile driven than women. "More riskier" is improper grammar.
@@KG-jd9jw Well there is something that you apperantly don't realize, and that is how statistics work.
If men drive more (which they do) of course they are going to have more accidents.
That is such basic logic that I am embarassed for you.
Wow! How did I ever make it from Texas to Indiana & back all by my little ol' self? ;-P (and my husband is the one who plays NASCAR w/ semi trucks, BTW).
Eheheh. My grandma drove cross-country from West Virginia to California with a friend back in the 1920s--no problem. She and my mom drove me and my brothers from New Jersey to West Virginia without a hitch--and that was around the era of this ridiculous ad. 🤣
I can see how people today would think this is sexist, but most cars back then had no power steering or power brakes and polyglas tires would have you bouncing all over the road if you hit a pothole. It took some muscle to drive them. They weren't like cars today where you can just get in them and drive.
Many accidents occur when the little lady looks down & discovers a run in her nylons.
It also pays to keep track of her periods on your calendar so you know when to deny her permission to drive.
women also have the tendency to hit the curb more. I work for a tire company. we have studied this. women more often scrap the sides of their tires against the curb when parking. not sure why? any guess?
Shoot, even as kids, me and my friends spotted this commercial as garbage. Our moms drove all the time--in fact, my mom learned to drive in West Virginia, where your life literally depends on you knowing what the heck you are doing. 😂
my mom thought that the insurance company wasn't gonna give me as much as a discount because i'm a boy, she thought women were better drivers, now look who's right
omg, I don't know how we ever even learned to tie our own shoes. Thank God that mean are around to help us !
@Bruce Wayne lol
I hope your joking
HOLY SHIT. pretty sure this would be considered sexist even then!
That wasn't sexist. He just cares about his wife.
A sexist joke a guy told me in art class the other day: "Why was Helen Keller such a bad driver?" "..." "BECAUSE SHE WAS A WOMAN! AHAHAHA!" I didn't bother to point out that there were no cars back then.. :)
This is funny and sexist at the same time
Then dont laugh
Until last week, when I allowed my daughter to drive me somewhere, I would have considered this to be a bit on the sexist side. No more!
Stereotypes exist for a reason.
thumbs up if you clicked this video because you read "the most sexiest ad of all time"
Lmaooooooo sooo hilarious if u can't see it for the times and laugh 😂 you ain't right
That's right. I keep my woman straight and in line. Sure sometimes I gotta give her a good smacking around. Just helps keep her in her place. Reminds her that she isn't my financial equal
OMG! Men who want to keep their wives safe! I'm shocked I tell you, SHOCKED!
Women dont need man to protect them.
@@Mariadelmarmantilla Keep on telling yourself that.
i had this confused for the most sexiest ad of all time. lol!
It makes sense if you imagine that she was just delivering a goddamn sammich.
Honestly every time I am driving, the person that cuts me off, swerves all over the road while texting, not going when the light is green because they are texting, not going forward in the drive thru because they are texting, braking randomly from using both feet on an automatic, floors it when loosing traction thinking the tires will stop spinning on their own, and drives off when in an accident, is always a woman. Not being sexist, just stating that I never see a man doing that and that usually the shitty drivers happen to be female. I also noticed guys are bad about tailgating. Saying that would not be considered "sexist" because in order to be sexist, it has to be about women...
I almost got run over by a man that was gabbing on his phone and not paying attention. He wasn't using a hands free device. It was terrifying.
I love being a woman and my beautiful man takes care of me..which I truly appreciate. I did not find this ad offensive or sexest at all
Can't believe this is still trending! LOL!
Honestly, women weren't as independent back then. They were expected to be weak and confused, and if they weren't that way naturally, they usually acted that way. The ad is just a piece of history. :P
Not Sexist just from a different time
No... it IS sexist even if it's from a different time.
How is this sexist? It's the truth!
LMFAO! Times have CHANGED! Much respect for how far women came in America. Thumbs up if you agree.
The music is brilliant.
Refreshing,especially in todays PC climate where the truth is rarely publicly admitted.
Any married guy without a roadside assistance plan knows who has to take care of that tire if it gets popped out on the road somewhere.
See how hysterical women get just reacting to this ad? That's why we only let them drive when we're too drunk...
404 Women understood that this video is an internet error. Women dont drive.
388 women were actually smart enough to understand that this is insulting
women in the 50s were probably thinking, "oh god, this is SO TRUE!"
Vacuum cleaners used to look like cars back in the 60s? Whoda thunk??
Oh god, driving, so confusing and terrifying!
Thumbs up if you thought it said " sexiest ad of all time " lmao
@J88Wolf to me the issue seems more about safety. if they showed her rolling over nails, then broken glass, then land mines, maybe. But they show her having to stop short, entering 'scary" places like airports, etc.
*thinking to self* I bet one of the top comments is sexist. *scrolls down* Oh hey, I win.
NO WOMEN WERE HARMED DURING THE MAKING OF THIS AD! As for the people out of her car ...
i clicked on this cuz i thought it said "sexiest ad" not "sexist ad" lol
"When a womans at the wheel..." that statement alone is enough to get a man ran over. 😂
This "vintage" tire commercial evokes early ’90s when I was a college student and drove over a LARGE nail on a lightly-traveled road. Heard a pop, drove the ½ mile back home. My FATHER DECIDED I would be OK riding the donut spare for my 200 mi. trek and I could get a new tire the next day at a SEARS store in watch?v=aa-c6YcDcSM.

"Women, for goodness' sake, don't drive!"
It's not like we see women drifting around in the streets, so the ad has a point.
"but polyglas means more than milage......when your Wife has to drive Alone.." O.o
*cue the music*
My wife just wrote off my truck. THIS VIDEO MADE MY DAY A LOT BETTER! hahahah
i clicked on this cuz i thought it said "sexiest ad of all time"
My wife would still find a way to wreck her car if she had these tires. :)
I don't think it is sexist if they mean that predators could be targeting her if her tires blow. But it is sexist if they mean that she is more likely to ruin the tires.
I can't believe I actually made it home last night, silly stupid me lol
I can't believe the comments. The concern, of course, is that if a woman is stranded it's a different story than if a man is stranded. Sorry to defend the spot, but I never thought in the terms you guys mean when viewing this spot.
