Released in January 2010 and initially only shown in the local Sussex area, this public service announcement from the Sussex Safer Roads Partnership became an international phenomenon after it was distributed on the internet, through social networking sites and YouTube, gaining over a million views in its first two weeks. The film's incredible reach -- it is now one of the top ten YouTube videos of all time -- stems from innovative story telling and an emotional approach to the message: wear your seat belt; a message focused on family, love, and all you have in life to embrace.

    If one thinks of his seat belt as the arms of his family or friends protecting him from harm, who could refuse to wear one? It is a very effective ad.

    This film is a beautiful example of Symbiotic Communications. It delivers it's key marketing message: wear your seat belt. But it communicates more than that; it champions deep-rooted values around family, love, compassion and embracing life. It forms a symbiotic relationship with its audience, tapping into our soft-wired need to support each other. This is more than an advert about surviving - it shines a light on what we need to thrive as a human species. My favourite ad of all time. For another example of Symbiotic Communications - something that cooperates with its audience on a deep and intimate level - watch Yourself - my favorite video of all time: http://www.globaltoleranceconnect.com/video/yourself-1

  • One out of every five drivers will be involved in a car crash this year.  Educate yourself with helpful stats. 
  • Reframe a challenge as something positive.  This film reframes a tragedy from the lens of positivity, just like the Adopt-a-Highway campaign.
  • Buckle up.  Even if you're in the back seat!
