When the Gwent Police Department in Wales decided to revamp its road-safety film on joyriding, the Welsh agency chose to channel Quentin Tarantino in its depiction of a highway crash involving teens and texting. The grisly formula worked; the video, which cost about $20,000 to produce, has already been viewed nearly 5 million times on YouTube. If the video is too graphic for you (warning: it's very graphic), don't blame the director. "Young people were telling us, 'It needs to be more shocking, it needs to be more violent,'" Peter Watkins-Hughes told the New York Times. Darn kids.
Why should you buckle your seat belts, well because it dangerous if you don't buckle your seat belts and you could be hurt BAD or even worst. This is only one of the many reasons that you should buckle your seat belts and STAY SAFE!
