Funny how the RTA can show children being fatally hit by a car in graphic slow motion detail, burnouts, speeding and dangerous driving but we get the do-gooders complaining over a toddler driving or a kid hitchhiking!
Apparently, showing this kind of material will turn all of our children into hitchhiking unlicensed drivers! I wonder how many of these whingers let their kids watch the shows we have on TV nowadays?

Thanks do-gooders for making my decision for me and shielding me from your perceived evils. I will go off now and watch something a little less damaging to my far to easily influenced mind…

A clockwork orange maybe…

Dunno why I am bothered with this waste of space article but what is wrong with catching a train instead?

I think the ads funny, its different so it gets attention so it works.

These people that have a whinge, how pathetic. Soon they will whinge about ads themselves… “oh advertisements promote the bad idea of consumerism which promotes credit card debt” now remove all advertisements!!! In doing so the dumb Advertising Standards board will put themselves out of a job because they actually respond to such stup!d complaints.

I actually emailed Hyundai congratulating them on such a great ad and passed on my outrage that they were forced to pull the original from the airwaves.

In my editorial opinion piece that I used to write when I was a motoring journalist for a newspaper, I also expressed my outrage over the narrow minded dopes who complained about the original ad. Needless to say that editorial was one of the most popular I had written.

Kudos to Hyundai for bringing it back, even if it’s not the full version.
