Anti Drunk-Driving Campains.

One of the most interesting, hilarious ideas for a anti-drunk driving campaign was one that I found on a blogging site for Stanford University. It was just an idea, but using talking urinal cakes in the men's restrooms as bars is a great way to promote safe driving. Using a women's voice and telling men to find a sober ride right around closing time is a great way to make them thing twice about getting in the car. Because it's usually not a thought to those who regularly drink and drive. But just having that last little "hey, think about it" going on, will make many change their minds. But this is a student campaign idea....






The next idea I found to go with the anti-drunk driving campaigns is sponsored byNational as well as State Governments around the nation, including Mo DOT. The campaign puts up billboards around the state of Missouri, as well as Television ads and magazine articles. They portray images of death and jail time, mainly the worst parts a drunk driving experience. The website brings about the more formal aspect of the campaign, including the laws.
