Seven of the funniest transport videos: Australia's Climate Council have rounded up some amusing ads on the subject of transport issues, road safety etc, possibly attempting to go viral with the power of laughter while promoting their newly released report into Australian Transport vs Global Warming. One of the seven is missing but you will find it here.

...that file also alarmed Chief O'Brien... but if I were in any of the Star Trek universes (including the Mirror), I would only trust a transporter operator who was Irish or Scottish. (And I'd never wear a red shirt if I was going off-ship, and make sure I was accompanied by at least two shipmates who were.)

I really loved the "I can't grab your ghost chips" one.

While obviously the accent is different... It's also rare that there wouldn't be a couple of NZers who sound a little like that.

Stop a mate from driving drunk, bloody legend.

Honestly the biggest thing that stops drunk driving as far as I can't tell is that few people my age drive to a party anymore, around here. They get lifts with a dezzo, they take public transport, they use rideshares. I knew one bloke that drunk drove and wouldn't listen to reason, I don't know if anyone knows him anymore.

Yipes, sorry about that! Not what I expected - the perils of bleeding edge web technology apparently. I hope you found it amusing at least.
