    Well. I was watching some of these films on youtube, and I'll say they didn't skimp out on details. There's footage of dead bodies in numerous films such as "Signal 30" and good advice in them that leads to safe driving if it is followed always, I say now that whoever made those films wasn't messing around. Cars back then sure took a beating in wrecks! Though yes, There are still car accidents today which are brutal. Man alive, Wow.

    Back then, When a mistake was made they did it big time. It's still that way today and it's comforting to know of there being vigilant drivers back then in 1959.

    Wow. I feel humility, If I were to step out of safe driving I'd be gone. And if I'm missing any safe driving tips that's an opening to disaster, So I'd best learn and know and live safe driving! (Please do advise me!)

    (Did I post this in the right section of the forum?)
