| Synopsis | nstead of focusing on the driver and their actions on the road, the new TV spot and print takes a different viewpoint, focusing on the passenger in the vehicle and how they feel. The new approach to road danger reduction communications moves away from traditional shock tactics, prompting drivers to think differently about their speed by reframing it through the eyes of those closest to them. New research, commissioned by TfL, has identified that two thirds of car passengers have felt uncomfortable with speed when driven by a friend or family member, and almost 30 per cent of car passengers, would feel uncomfortable asking a friend or family member to slow down. This worrying statistic suggests that many drivers may be driving in London unaware that they are driving at an unsafe speed and that their passengers feel uncomfortable about this. |
