Episode 5 of a series of educational clips about traffic safety, produced by the Ministry of Transport and the National Council for Accident Prevention. Each episode opens with a brief, humorous cartoon illustrating the subject of the clip, starring the Traffic Safety Mouse – a character adapted from a German cartoon from the 1970s titled “Die Sendung mit der Maus” (“The Program with the Mouse”). This episode features a noticeably stressed mother driving her two children, who are doing everything in their power to disturb her – shouting, pulling her hair and throwing dolls at the driver’s seat. As a result, Mom gets distracted and looks away from the road, causing an accident. The clip implores children not to bother Mom while she’s driving.
