Great! I am very happy this particular video has been posted on your Facebook page. The more people are aware and educated that there are other alternatives, the better.

As for the problem of the drivers paying little to no attention to signs with the arrival of smartphones, tablets, and the rest of the Internet gadgets along with the traditional distractions (pretty women/men out and about, eating/drinking, putting makeup on, reading, settling child fights/dogs moving about on the seats, etc.), the problem of paying attention to anything on the road will only get worse, not better. Ride/drive like you always expect the other guy to be in LaLa Land. Because most likely they are.
