MADD Brings Us An Idiot’s Guide to Drunk Driving

Well here’s a different approach to safe driving advertising. Rather than horrific death and dismemberment, TBWA Toronto has created a quirky MADD campaign that highlights the stupid behaviors of idiots who explain how to stay on the road while drunk. There’s no blood. There’s no guts. There’s no screaming girlfriend and there’s no inconsolable parents.

Nope. Just a collection of doofuses telling us how they manage not to crash while drunk. Hmm. Not too sure about this one. Making light of drunk driving? That’s sort of like making light of misogynist shiny suds who taunt women in a shower. Who would do that?
