OnStar "Long Hug " (2015) :30 (USA)

OnStar’s Automatic Crash Response can now detect how severe your crash is so they can send the appropriate amount of help. I like the spot's misdirect here. At first I watched this with the sound down, as I do with all spots, to see if I can get it. And this spot relies heavily on the VO. Because even when they reveal the cops on bikes and ambulances there's no car crash in sight. I felt more like a scene in a romantic movie where the guy convinces the girl not to jump because "the other guy's not worth it-- it's ME you should be with!"

Not that I want to see a mangled car, but you know.
