Drunk Driving PSA (Skeletons) - 1983

This PSA was produced by the Ad Council and the US Department of Transportation to warn people of the dangers of drunk driving...... A group of teens are loading into a car to head out to a new hangout. One of the teens asks the driver if he is OK to drive. The driver responds with "What's a few beers". He then sticks his keys in and turns the ignition, which then turns all four teens in the car into skeletons, with the narrator imploring "If you don't stop your friend from drinking and driving, you're as good as dead!!!" Michael Jackson was so impressed by this commercial, that he lent the use of his song "Beat It"
