Safe Speed Forums

Hi Folks,

I believe that the script / voiceover for the T junction bike / car SMIDSY crash advert has been changed.

Can anyone find the old script and the new? Or remember enough to know the differences?

Ran on the lines of "Now You See him .. now you don't" - und showed the views in mirrors from off und nearside too. If ist one I think of..

I actually thought this a fair enough advert .. one of the better ones .. und sadly not shown enough to get hammered into minds

This is what is currently on the web site. To be honest I can't remember the "At a junction, look, look and look again" bit all though it did finish take longer to look for bikes

Thanks for posting. So far I have only found one version.

I had an email from a member of the public suggesting that I needed to listen to the new wording because of my interests in A pillars and SMIDSY. That's all I know...

Can someone try these links from google. I'm very limited to what I can do at work. Somebody might have already tried it.

I downloaded the video back in February, and it is the same as the two linked to by Dixie. Thus, they look like the "originals".

The member of the public may have only just seen the advert even though it's been around for a long time and assumed it was new and so contacted you.

My son watches movies and shows on his computer and rarely watches public TV. He cracked up over an ad the other day that has been on for months...

Thanks folks.

I've still found no changes and suspect the original information was wrong. I have emailed the originator asking for clarification.
