People are exposed to public service announcements that advocate for changes in
behaviour, such as abstaining from drinking and driving, wearing a seatbelt, quitting smoking,
preventing obesity, or protecting against west Nile virus. Consider the following TV commercials.
Each commercial attempts to persuade young people to abstain from drinking and driving. The ads
described were found when visiting http://www.visit4info.com/, a database containing TV ads
from all around the world.
