Federal Office Of Road Safety 'Wear A Helmet' commercial from 1984 transferred from Philips VCR cassette. This commercial features a cameo appearence of Molly Meldrum riding his bike with a bunch of young riders through a tunnel into a 1980s surrealistic 3D computer animated Sydney which they fly all over Sydney through the city, over AMP Centrepoint Tower, through the SCG, over the Sydney Harbour Bridge and exiting through the mouth of Lunar Park, and of course a real cool 80s rock soundtrack to go with the ad. Pretty expensive ad to send a simple message across but I guess it takes a commercial like this to get that message through to kids as they would then think it's cool and trendy to wear a helmet and go out and buy themselves a Stackhat. Awesome commercial!

If you fell off your bike while flying around Sydney at those speeds, I don't think a helmet would be of much help.

This is the coolest ad to ever be on Australian TV. I remember this ad so well, I even had the tune in my head correct. Thankyou so much for putting this up. This is a ripper! Bring it back to TV I say!
