Government launches new THINK! motorcycle safety campaign

The government is anti bike and please don't think this is for the beneifit of motorcyclists. As you will see in the advert it will continue to show the dangers to the motorcyclists and genrally scare relatives and loved ones to push the motorcyclists to give up thier bikes. Now most parents would hate to see thier children ride a motorcycle and be scared silly at the thought of them out on the road.

It is a very subtle message that is sent to continue the fears of motorcycling. If the government really wanted to improve the situation the adverts should be geared to motorcyclists in the reasbonsibility to lookout for themselves and that motorcylce are invisable to other motorists. Yes its harsh and not fair but ultimately each person has the responsibility to look after thier own health and the as we know we generally come out worse with an accident. I love my motorcycling and really wish to more motorcyclists on the roads but this type of campaign is designed to further reduce the numbers on the road.

This is good.  It's targeted at women.

Heh, I like it. It's memorable and that's important.

I was waiting for something horrible to happen, and that it didn't makes it surprising, and thereby more memorable.

''If you got to know me,    I think you'd like me very much''....

''.....Next time your out driving, look out for Tom, an Dave an Nick & Helen, and Amy.....''       ...because their 'Kin Wierdo's
 
Ha Ha Ha !   ...look at em,  oh yea, better make friends with them !!

FFSake, £3.5 Million, for that pish ! 

Once again the govenment controlled media has portrayed an image to the general public which makes us look stupid

If anyone believes that an advertising campaign such as this, is going to remind a car driver to look out for motorcyclists when driving, then they probably only could be an MP

Its fantastic to have £3.5 Million pounds from the government to make people more bike aware when driving, an such a shame to see it wasted.
