One out of eleven deaths caused by car accidents has to do with drinking and driving. So St John Ambulance in Hamburg along with ad agency Serviceplan developed the “Radio Geister” project which aimed to raise awareness about the dangers of drinking and driving among young drivers.

Antarctica Breathalyzer

Drinks giant Ambev aimed to reduce high rates of drinking and driving in Brazil. So with agency Almap BBDO, they came up with a unique Antarctica beer ‘breathalyzer’ campaign.

If they passed, they could go, but if the machine detected alcohol, the girl on the screen would transform into a gyrating, seductive beauty and the machine would spit out a discount voucher for a taxi company. 😆
