How To Drive. Archival Driving Mash Up.

- With Holden announcing they will no longer make cars in Australia after 2017 a proud 65 year history of car manufacturing will come to an end. Here we take a look at some Australian driving history via a mash up of Film Australia Collection road safety and driving instructional films where Holdens feature predominantly, demonstrating just how ubiquitous they have been on Australian roads. Buckle up, it's going to be a bumpy ride.
I would of bought a car off Maxine.
Fascinating! Australia had the same problems with cars and drivers as the United States. I like the ending, where the guy says "road safety depends on *you.*" That's true. *You're* the bloke behind the wheel of the car, or bike. *You* control what the car or the bicycle, or motorcycle does. *You* be careful, for your safety, for your family's safety, and for the safety of other motorists and bicyclists, and pedestrians. :)
How cool...
I'm 60 now and still driving a HQ V8 Holden one tonna built 1971 that I've owned 22 years
I've got a HJ Panel van that I drive every day
A VY UTE and the Mrs driving a Holden Vectra...now built overseas...
The way it's going...I'll be using one as a coffin when I go the the big wrecking yard ...
Thanks Charlie.
The Kingswood? You’re not taking the Kingswood! I’ve just armouralled the license plate!
You can't take the Kingswood, I just put a new tennis ball on the towbar.
It kills me to see that beautiful FJ holden being crashed at the end
Yes, but being from a 1957 film it must have had something making it near worthless then. Eg rescued from saltwater or already crash damaged. But abundant then as were the Mad Max cars when filmed.
It doesn't bother me. They were shit cars.
Those were the days when you were a kid who fell off ya pushbike better get out of the way of the cars waiting for the red light to turn green🇦🇺
Lol at the kid that crashes his bike in front of the stopped traffic and has to get out the way quickly because the lights have changed and that traffic ain't stopping for no one!
Hey kid can you crash your bike and land on the road for our movie
Ahhh yes........ motoring in the 20th century.........when your cassette player chewed up the tape mid song, when you had all the windows down in summer, when the seats burned your legs in summer, when you walked along a footpath and a guy not paying attention suddenly slamming on his brakes to avoid the car in front, scared the crap out of you(in the days before ABS), when ten year old cars blew smoke, had noisy exhausts, rust and every panel a different colour..........that's how it was!
When cars from the 60's and 70's were 15 - 20 years old, they aged very disgracefully, unlike cars of say, the noughties, on.
You could by a pair of HK Monaros for $200 total. Try doing that now!
What a FABULOUS video! Thanks so much for uploading. Just LOVE looking at the old Aussie Cars
Thanks Chris
@@danrobinson572 Hi Dan, yes we have plenty more to come. Thousands in fact!
NFSA Films good 😊 I'm loving these videos.
Many a cringe worthy moment recalled there - and I ain't talking about the driving.😀
No way these videos could be made these days with all the health and safety concerns!! I thought that kid cycling down the hill to catch a lift with the back of the truck was going to slide underneath it!!
It's unforgivable that Holden will no longer be building cars in Australia. Sadly, it seems the same thing is happening in other countries. The USA and Canada, it seems, are letting other countries build our cars and trucks. What's wrong with this picture? :(
Hi Jason, I'm Fran from Spain. I heard years ago that German cars ( Wolskwgen, Audi, Mercedes ) are more demanded and expensives in US, this is true? Here in Spain US and Japanese cars, less Ford obviously, are expensives both cars and spairs
Look up the Lima Declaration. You will find out the answer to it and a lot more. But you won't like what you find
great to see these videos. love seeing these classic cars. thanks for uploading!
The way they Drive until now.... 😲😲😲😲😲😲
" One car for every six people … this is greater than any country in the world ".
Most enjoyable. My use for a time machine; go back and save all the great old cars!
Who remembers give away to your right in NSW ?
3:12 - Campbell Parade, Bondi Beach.
Maxine! Classic.
I love this video
Thank you
Hahahah its a wonder we survived
2:26 - I love Maxine.
The cars might have changed, but the standard of driving hasn't.
Great. What is the music used in this?
Thanks, the music was composed for the mash up.
+NFSA Films care to the Share the name of the producer, for the purpose of brilliance.
+Jeremy Miller Hi Jeremy, sorry for the oversight. Richard Carter (NFSA) was responsible for the film edit and the music composition. As such it does not have a particular title. Thanks for asking. Hope you enjoyed it.
about 3000 killed per year back then
When our population was less than half
What's the used car clip from 2:20 to 3:00 from? Is it in full on here? Thanks.
Most of those shots are from a 1999, 4 part series called Auto Stories, episode 1 Affairs of the Heart. Not published in full on UA-cam yet.
Ok, thanks for replying. I seem to recall watching it back then on the ABC.
Yes would have screened on the ABC. Hopefully one day we will be able to put it up here.
that was pretty cool
flavour1970 Thanks for your comment. Glad you enjoyed it.
