This video contains three stories of three young people who were driving and texting and were in an accident because of it. The first story was told by a sister of the victim. She sent one word and her sister died in an accident. The next was a boy who was in the passenger seat of the car when it hit a tree. He had brain damage and now cannot do what he referred to as "normal things". The last was about a teenage girl who was on the way to watch a baseball game. One of her friends was giving her directions and she looked away too long and crashed. These stories were all used to tell people the hazard of texting and driving. At the end of the video AT&T states "Texting and Driving...It can wait".
This video works to make people stop texting and driving because it appeals to the emotions. The people who spoke were the family of people who passed, and one survivor. The families were hurt tremendously in the accidents because these good people died and were wounded. This appeals to our hearts because no one thinks that a text message is worth a life. It also appeals to our logic because we know we should not text and drive, but tend to do it anyways. This video shows you the reason why you should not text and what the consequences of that is.
