Screw Advertising Standards. Animate Your Unsafe Driving

Do you work for an agency in Canada? Are you troubled by our country’s strict guidelines for advertising which bans the depiction of unsafe driving in television commercials? Hate that rule and want to show whatever the hell you feel like in your car commercials? Then just copy what TBWA Toronto did for the Nissan Juke and turn your commercial depicting unsafe driving into an animated series which, apparently, is just fine with your country’s Advertising Standards body.

Showing a hot chick in tight black leather works well too. See more of the campaign here.
