It's not real. I checked out the official website a while back after wondering the same thing - couldn't find the bit I saw last time but the gist of it was that they got them to perform largely ad-libbed footage (not very good stuff mind you - as was said, all that "pretty in pink" stuff is pretty pathetic) before going to the scripted car accident bit.
Still, it's a pretty powerful way of getting the message across. |

Whether it was real or not it helped get the message of road safety across to my son. |

No, absolutely not. I saw them preview it on "Newsround" on BBC1 before it was first shown. I really don't think guidelines which t.v. companies run by would allow a real event to be shown in that way, and I can't imagine parents consenting to it either; it's one thing for one image of your drug o.d. kid to be shown once in all the national newspapers, but another to have it running again and again on t.v. all the time. Can you imagine them taking the chance that they might see it? |

No it's just that made way to be realistic - and it certainly sends the message - look before you cross.
My cousin went on a course for driving without due care and attention and he told me about 2 videos he had to watch - which are banned from being shown on TV - drink driving and boy racers - he said it was sick and defino get the message through. |

Theres no way thats real. Its all too staged. Listen to the kids' conversation. Real kids don't talk like that "Pretty in Pink" and all that!!! |

Unfortunately not. But that only makes it marginally less amusing |

I heard it was, but I spose it the harshest way of getting the message accross. The best way to stop people doing things is to show them the real consequences of their actions. Same as all these smoking ads. When u see a person dying on tele strapped to an oxygen cannister, it shows the reality of it and that it could happen to u just as much as them. Harsh but very very true!
