[00:04.66]Nearly a quarter of all the advertisements
[00:06.79]on TV are about cars.
[00:09.74]You see an attractive man or woman
[00:11.49]driving a fast car

[00:14.94]It's not true!
[00:16.58]That new car won't make you more attractive.
[00:18.95]And you won't be driving
[00:20.09]on an empty country road.
[00:22.16]You'll be stuck in a traffic jam in a city
[00:24.65]or on a highway!

[00:46.24]Ask for a pedestrian area.
[00:48.59]Do whichever of these things that suit you.

[00:59.79]Well, I'm sorry I must finish this article.
[01:02.50]I've got to pick up my daughter from school
[01:04.59]at four o'clock.
[01:06.17]Then I've got to drive to Sainsbury's
[01:07.70]to do the shopping.
[01:09.11]After that I have to take my son to a party.
[01:12.17]And tomorrow we're driving
[01:13.89]over to see my mother.
[01:15.16]The traffic's going to be awful,
