This
morning’s Morning Edition program on NPR did a piece about a film by Verner
Herzog called “From One Second to the Next.” It was produced as part of a campaign
sponsored by AT&T to discourage young people from texting and driving
called “It Can Wait.”
The
half hour film shows the personal results of crashes that are the results of
texting and driving from the perspective of both the victims and those who were
texting and driving.
Film has been used to discourage
drinking and drive in the past. Those films often used graphic images to show
the gore of car crashes in an attempt to shock people to refrain from taking
the drink. This film takes a different tact. The victims and the texting
drivers tell their stories of loss, including the loss of loved ones.
This film is worth passing on
to the young drivers in your life:
