Stop Ads Showing Cars as Toys

More of a threat than Al-Qaeda ever was, the automobile kills 40,000 a year and injures nearly 3 million. Yet, car companies are able to show cars being used as playthings and racing machines. Driving an automobile is a serious, dangerous business. Just ask the people and families whose lives have been changed forever due to a traffic accident.  We know the power of the media in influencing people. What is the difference between showing a child cigarette smoking and misusing a vehicle for fun? Marketing the use of an automobile in any way that is dangerous should be outlawed.
