- slayerab, on 10/11/2007, -13/+166You get a Porsche because your penis is small. You drive fast because its fun
- lovemaster, on 10/17/2007, -3/+101"Billy... you're speeding..."
"Yeah, so?"
"The ad said that drivers who speed have a small... you know."
"What?"
"I think we should break up"
"*****" - Azimuth1, on 10/11/2007, -2/+90I like how they imply that all people who speed are male.

http://adsoftheworld.com/media/print/saab_safe_driving_children - Jonjonr6, on 10/17/2007, -11/+77I used to be an avid speeder. I drove 80+ everywhere. Then I got an R6, and rode 100+ everywhere (until I spent a night in jail). I used to argue that someone who could handle driving those speeds are usually more alert and better drivers than slow drivers.
Now, I absolutely hate aggressive drivers. The truth is, aggressive drivers are the biggest problem on the road next to impaired drivers.
It's extremely disrespectful to drive aggressively around others. Only a douchebag climbs up someone's tailpipe trying to go 90 when you're already in bumper-to-bumper traffic, and its only going 40.
I live 60 miles from my job and drive through rush hour traffic through Atlanta. I usually drive about 65. I often see people cutting in and out of lanes in a lame attempt to get through traffic faster, only for me to pass them later when traffic grinds to a halt. Happens daily.
My advice to everyone... I don't care what you do on an open road, but when you're in traffic, think about how you'd feel if someone you knew or cared about was in every car around you. Noone wants to lose a loved one because some ***** thought he was the king of the road.
And, I'm all for open season on these idiots. - smurf22, on 10/11/2007, -1/+66My grandpas penis must be huge!
- hassanchop13, on 10/17/2007, -0/+56wait... they let women drive cars now?
- andrewcsayer, on 10/11/2007, -2/+55What's wrong with a small penis?
- JEWestbrookJR, on 10/11/2007, -12/+64This makes my day. I ***** hate people who think they are badasses because they drive 80 in a 60 in their retarded 'moded' cars. My car can do that too, and it doesn't have a spoiler that looks like a park bench on it and is 12 years old.
- vasillalov, on 10/11/2007, -3/+47Yeah right!
So these ladies waving their pinkies at the sight of speeding young males should drop their panties when they see slow-poke grandpa in the CrownVic barely doing 5mph in town because he forgot to crank up his oxygen tank! - unusualbob, on 10/11/2007, -4/+47solution: Drive naked
note: only works if it isnt cold outside. - JavertHolmes, on 10/11/2007, -0/+35If speeding is the sign of a small penis, call me Mr. Hyperspace.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+34Anyone who speeds and suddenly stops speeding after seeing these ads are the more likely the ones to wonder about.
On a side note.... my wife drives faster than I do... - LaueOfficer, on 10/11/2007, -1/+35That's when you whip it out and drive with no hands ;)
- AJRiddle, on 10/17/2007, -6/+34Im in ur speedometer shrinkin yo penis.
- Cwo655321, on 10/11/2007, -1/+27is there an equivalent "your vagina is too loose" for women who speed?
- ricodued, on 10/11/2007, -3/+28I must point out that Porsches and the like enable a new level of speeding. Speeding in a Porsche and speeding in my Subaru Forester are two entirely different things. Why can't one love speed, fast cars, and still have an average-to-large sized penis?
- GrouchoMarx42, on 10/11/2007, -3/+27That, and apparently you have a small penis.
- Netrilix, on 10/11/2007, -0/+20Well, with no penis at all, they have A LOT to make up for.
- plantfood, on 10/11/2007, -1/+19Everyone knows that a man speeding is still safer on the road than a woman driving.
- lieutenantmudd, on 10/11/2007, -1/+18Meh... I prefer ad campaigns over tickets and traffic camera.
- Protoss, on 10/11/2007, -0/+16Haha I had a douche with a 'modded' out, huge ass pickup (this is in Tx, so its the cool thing...) weave in and out of traffic, get right on my ass, going maybe 90, and a cop going the opposite way did a u-turn just to catch him. Needless to say, it was amazing.
- Rikkochet, on 10/11/2007, -4/+20Aggressive drivers and speeders are two very different creatures. The ***** who weave in and out of traffic and pass on the shoulder aren't speeders - they're road hazards and need to be removed from the roads, permanently if that were possible.
People who just drive over the limit (in safe areas) tend to just be more at home operating a car at those speeds. If I know all the quirks of that road, where children play and might jump out, where a lot of animals cross, where people often make stupid right turns into traffic without slowing, then I can handle that road at that speed. If I'm doing double the limit (not that I ever have) but I intimately know the road and what it presents, I have far less of a danger than an extremely old driver who can't even see over the steering wheel and doesn't "believe" in blind spots.
But policing has nothing to do with keeping drivers safe - it's entirely to do with generating revenue. If public safety were really an issue you would see a lot more bike cops on the road chasing down erratic, dangerous drivers and far fewer speed traps. What good is a speed trap? As soon as I know you guys like to set up shop there I just slow down 10 seconds before I pass that spot and then speed up again. - tnoy, on 10/11/2007, -0/+16Yeah, its only a matter of time before they'll want us to let them vote.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -1/+17Billy should be the one dumping his dumb-ass girlfriend...just for being so impressionable.
- demonsnake69, on 10/11/2007, -2/+16If you're so self-concerned about your penis that an ad will make you change the way you drive, then maybe you should hand your car keys over to a sex therapist.
- unusualbob, on 10/11/2007, -0/+14wtf it has double posted like 5 times today for me, kill it.
- intense321, on 10/11/2007, -6/+20I'm totally confused by this ad. Having a small penis is bad? My penis is ***** huge and there are days that I wish I could cut it off. It gets in the way of everything. It's a damned nuisance. I can't even ride a bicycle properly because it's so uncomfortable. People with small penises have it made, man.
- adc86, on 10/11/2007, -0/+12Billy, slamming on brakes: Out, ho. The ads before and after that one said my cologne will have hotter women all over me anyway.
- a7knight, on 10/11/2007, -2/+14Why was your first comment dugg down, but your second one dugg up?
*Sigh* I'll never understand Digg. - thomascj, on 10/11/2007, -4/+15I think this sign would make more sense aimed at Police Officers who are complete dicks.
- Lucian0, on 10/11/2007, -1/+11How about instead, they get rid of speed limits on major thoroughfares...
- bluedog242, on 10/17/2007, -2/+11Nice to see an Aussie story make the front page
- Skooma714, on 10/11/2007, -0/+9Government is nothing but a bunch of adult children anyway.
- scm1000dc, on 10/11/2007, -0/+8Something tells me that the creator of these ads has a sub-average penis and drives a no-frills Civic. It's his way of getting back at the world.
- Strider817, on 10/11/2007, -2/+10Raising the cost of speeding really won't do too much... just witness the amount of people who speed in construction zones.
Frankly, I don't think there is anything that can really be done to prevent people from speeding. People don't like driving for the most part, and they just want to get it over quickly, and speeding helps with that. Besides, sensible speed limits would do alot to decrease the amount of speeders out there. - AnteChronos, on 10/11/2007, -5/+13Speeding *is* dangerous, even if you have control of your vehicle. But it's not the speeding itself, but the relative *difference* in speeds between you and other cars on the road. If two cars are going the same speed, then it's fairly easy to maintain a safe distance so that you can react to any sudden changes in the other cars' speed or direction (braking, changing lanes, etc). But when you're going 30mph faster than other traffic, passing other vehicles suddenly becomes a lot more dangerous, both for you and for them. You have it partly right, in that other people's driving is what's dangerous, but your own speeding can serve to amplify that.
- slayerab, on 10/11/2007, -1/+9Must've been one painful mistake
- inspecality, on 10/11/2007, -0/+7Mr. Hyperspace.
- Aliarse, on 10/11/2007, -5/+12Everyone should watch this : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zl7KoeVIh-k
And stopping speeding will never happen as long as there are fast cars out there. And people wont buy a slow car because they're just not fun. - plantfood, on 10/11/2007, -0/+7women can't drive either way... whether or not they have small penises is irrelevant.
- s1mph0ny, on 10/11/2007, -2/+8ricodued: if you don't racially profile against white young males, you're obviously behind the times.
- Le3f, on 10/11/2007, -7/+13When you see a 20-something-ish male driving their ***** car like a complete asshat, you think he's gotta be compensating for SOMETHING no?
- TheDreadDiggerD, on 10/11/2007, -0/+6Billy doesn't need to slam on the brakes. He just needs to throw the bitch out at 90+mph. If she lives, she'll never be impressionable again.
- renegadeafk, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5lol
- daRoach, on 10/11/2007, -4/+9What about woman speeders?
- therealrico, on 10/17/2007, -0/+5they also make great organ donors
- signal15, on 10/11/2007, -6/+11Nothing. But the reason I drive so fast is because I have to coil mine up on the floor and it presses on the throttle.
- rgucci, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5umm, am i the only one wondering why she doesn't know for sure yet at that point?
