Storyboard Text

  • INTRODUCTION
  • GUIDE
  • LEVEL 1: THE POOR PARKERS
  • LEVEL 2: NO BLINKERS
  • HEY!!!!
  • I just got my license last week. My mom allowed me to take her new Mustang out tonight, but she was hesitant. As I was driving down the stretch of open road on the east side of town, I decided to open the Mustang up and speed -- I was doing 80mph when the police officer pulled me over.
  • LEVEL 3: THE TEXTERS
  • As the police officer walked over, I realized that it was actually Abraham Lincoln! Abe told me that I had been speeding, and that I could have hurt myself or someone else. He warned me that being impulsive could lead to dangerous consequences, and motioned for me to follow him. I like Abe; he’s pretty honest, so I know that he won’t hold back.
  • LEVEL 4: THE SPEEDERS
  • Abe brought me to a parking lot, where every single car was parked so crookedly that no other cars could fit into the lot. Cars went around, endlessly looking for spots, but they couldn’t find them. These people never thought about anyone else when they parked their cars, and so they were doomed to eternally search in vain for a spot.
  • LEVEL 5: THE DUIs
  • Abe then brought me to the side of a highway, where several cars speeding down the lanes were suddenly cut off by others who didn’t use their signals. The results were disastrous with cars crashing everywhere. The cars would begin moving again, and would do the same thing. Abe said that these were the people who were too impulsive or selfish to follow the law, and their actions often had consequences.
  • THE END
  • Abe took me to a busy downtown street, where we observed drivers weaving and slowing down, crossing into other lanes, hitting cars, and hitting pedestrians trying to cross the road because they were too busy texting. The drivers in these cars were forced to endure the accidents over and over again as punishment for their selfish behavior.
  • Abe took me to an abandoned stretch of road, and we watched a driver rev his engine before taking off down the road. He got to 100mph, when he swerved and hit a rock, his car in flames. We watched him repeat it. Abe says that this is the least of the consequences from speeding. He could kill someone else, and there are souls doomed to repeat that mistake for eternity.
  • This was the worst level of driving offenses. We saw people getting behind the wheel who were clearly intoxicated, and hitting innocent pedestrians and other cars over and over again. The driver would sober up and collapse in remorse, but would have to do it all over again. Abe explains that these people made a conscious choice to risk other people’s lives, and so they have to relive the consequences.
  • Suddenly, I found myself in my car again, on that long stretch of road on the east side of town. I looked down at the speedometer and slowed down, just in time to see a deer cross the road in front of me. I stopped the car, took a breath, and turned back for home. I could have made a seriously bad decision by speeding, but guided by my own Honest Conscience, I’m glad I chose another path instead.
