BMW commercial banned by ad watchdog for promoting street racing
A video ad for BMW’s i3 model has been banned by the Ad Standards Board for portraying “unsafe” and “reckless” driving.
The ad featured the BMW line up against a US-style muscle car before both race off the lights.
I have been waiting for this one. Quite liked the ad but was wondering how The Nanny State hadn’t gotten up them yet,
Right on brother.
The same bloody nanny state that imposes a speed limit in suburban street, near schools and on highways. The buggers also dictate which side of the road we have to drive on. And as for having to stop at red lights … a bloody Nanny State.
Ask any racer, any real racer. It doesn’t matter if you win by an inch or a mile, winning’s winning.
