June 24, 2014, 10 years ago
A rendition of Guns N’ Roses classic ballad "Sweet Child O' Mine" is part of Northern Ireland’s DOE Road Safety commercial where a class of kids get gruesomely hit by an out-of-control car off the backroads.
The commercial’s narrator says: "Since 2000, speeding has killed a classroom of our children. Shame on you. You can never control the consequences if you speed.”
The YouTube clip has gone viral, with over two million views!
“The aim of this campaign is to challenge and dispel, once and for all, through this emotional and uncomfortable message, the false perceptions that many road users have as to the truly horrifying consequences of speeding,” says Road Safety minister Mark Durkan.
