Hi guys,

Here is a vid some of you may have seen before.. others maybe not. Since everyone here either drives, or will be soon, I thought this might be worth a watch. BE WARNED.... this is somewhat graphic! If you have a weak stomach, then be prepared. I've seen to many people die in my life, alot of them were due to accidents like these. Guess it goes with the job. Either way, have a look see.

WARNING - GRAPHIC IMAGES OF VEHICULAR ACCIDENTS!!!!

I used to work for the state as a cop, but now I work with kids (mental health.. kids who have illnesses, abused or molested etc).

LK, please put a bigger, explicit warning up for this video. I didn't know just how... "graphic" you meant this to be. Sort of a sore spot with me. Sorry I can't make any other comment, couldn't finish the video.

I didn't watch the video basically due to the warnings offered.
My actual question is does this thread belong in the "Graphics, Modding & Mapping" section?

In my opinion, this thread do not belong in KR forums. It's grotesque and nothing positive can come from this thread beside an argument. Then again, my standards seem to be different.. <.<

As far as I can tell, Jawfin, no. I think you might've misunderstood the meaning of 'Other,' LK. I was so caught off-guard by the content that I didn't even think about placement. I do wonder if it is appropriate for a site that has had preteens as members though, despite the warnings. I mean no offense, LK, an I can understand the importance of driving carefully as I lost someone dear to me the same way (the culprit was never apprehended), but was this really called for?

Thanks for posting this, very powerful video, makes you really think twice everytime you get into the car!!

It does shock people and make them realise I suppose.

however there are always idiots who either have to be somewhere fast, or some idiots with big willy syndrome..

Sadly these are 90% of the time city dwellers. I live and work in the city but as soon as you reach the out skirts the rat race "Im pushing in because I have a BMW or a Merc" goes away

My thinking was fairly black and white... If it saves one of your lives, then I can deal with one of you feeling offended. You see, I've lost people close to me to and then some. I do apologize Pyra if this hit to close to home, was not my intent.

I put it in this sections because.. well.. It didnt seem to fit any other place.

Aki.. the only potential argument to this point.. was with you and that's because you came into this thread swinging from your first post. I agree with you that it is somewhat grotesque, but I disagree with everything else you have written.

Not trying to be smart, just figured a picture explains what "other" refers to in regard to the "Graphics, Modding & Mapping" section, as its not so obvious.
