The commercial shows 3 young boys halting their bicycles, hesitant to ride into the water pooled on the pavement, wondering where it had come from. Another rider comes from behind them and zooms right past them, splashing through the water that had mysteriously accumulated. That rider turns out to be the younger sister of one of the boys. The commercial celebrates her fearlessness.
Flash forward a dozen years or so, to where that fearless child is now grown up and buying a new car, a VW. With the two driving experiences so closely intertwined, is the message that she should now drive her car through an unknown accumulation of water on the highway? Should foolhardy behavior not be discouraged in the interest of safety.
