An actual road safety ad from Australia in 1991 - eviltoast

This is pretty rough - be warned. Difficult to overstate how shocking this was in 1991.

      When it launched i think it played full length, but various sections of it were clipped into smaller bits. Think this was national news when it aired the first time? Hazy memories
