Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I read this horrible post a few years ago where a PoS passenger didn't buckle up. So the car drove off a cliff, her body flew and killed people in the back seat who were buckled up. The driver survived since he was buckled in.
this makes it sound like the driver intentiinally drove off the cliff in spite
Lmao, "Buckle up right now or I'll have to show you what happens!"
O'Doyle rules!
Grew up with this...

...the UK didn't pull their punches with road safety ads in the 90s. Sorry for YouTube.
Australia had ads like that too.

They relaunched this one a few years ago because of how effective it was in the 90s.
America did this too, but it was too hardcore for me to share clips, so here's the Wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Asphalt
Had to watch a couple of these in American driving school in high school.
