The rise of mobile/cellphone usage has made for some changes or interesting developments in varieties of fields including safety. Cellphone related accidents have risen over the years and are at its peak. People spending time on their cellphone is on the rise, therefore more and more are being used in daily routines. Walking and travelling on different modes of transportation like buses, taxis, subways, trains, airplanes and others have become a common sight to see. Initially texting by SMS was an issue but adding to this, are the social media mobile applications which are pushing people to use more and more of their cellphone. The added usage of unlimited characters of text, photos and video sharing have led to an extended period of usage of cellphones. The assumption of people that they can multi task while driving has let them to use their cellphones, thinking that they are in full control of the situation. But as statistics show, more number of accidents are on the rise due cellphone usage. Below is a video of Responsible Young Drivers (RYD) Belgium. where under control environment, the drivers are asked to type a text while driving. I am sure the point went across to the drivers.

Decent commercial advertisement face-off

Photo Courtesy to Google Images
France brings us a commercial advertisement face-off which shows how creativity and decency is kept without verbal abuse of each other's products. Many can learn from this. Initially, McDonald put up an advertisement with signboards about the number of McDrive (Drive Thru) and distance closest to the signboard along with the signboard of Burger King Drive Thru which are limited due to late entry into the French market. Have a look at the advertisement below. CLICK HERE to see the below video is French.

Burger King's response to the video is very nicely put by continuing and giving a nice ending to it. The release of this advertisement took place 4 days since McDonald's McDrive Thru advertisement release.
