Friday Film Fun: Dutch PSA, Drive with Your Heart

With the recently passed Safe Passing ordinance now in effect, the City of Austin has moved toward putting more responsibility on the drivers of cars and trucks to make our roads safe for all users. While bike lanes and bike paths have been found to be the safest option for those on two wheels, sometime you have to ride in traffic, and it is a real step forward to recognize with the great power of the automobile comes great responsibility.

Today’s film comes via Copenhagenize and is a Dutch PSA asking motorists to consider the more vulnerable on the road when driving.

Here’s the rough translation using a Google robot:

‘Cars today are full of things that protect the driver: belts, crumple zones, airbags, ABS, electronic stability control…”

“And there is an element in the car that protects other road users.”

“That part is in you. Drive with your heart.’

Well said. Be safe out there.
