Recent press comments from police in Scotland have suggested that car accident compensation cases could arise from the fact that young drivers cannot distinguish between real-life driving and the fantasy version found in films and video games.
One senior policeman is reported as having said that "Youngsters must realise what they see on television, films and computer games, is not always acceptable in real life." Part of the reason for this worry can be seen on YouTube, where some young drivers have hosted films of themselves driving as if in an action film.
A 2007 survey also showed a noticeable increase in the number of young drivers speeding after playing videogames.
In a car crash situation, these would not be considered reasonable excuses for driving dangerously or with excessive speed. If a personal injury lawyer can show that an accident was caused by driving that is fine on a PlayStation but dangerous on the road, then the driver who could not distinguish fantasy from reality may well be held largely, or entirely, responsible for any compensation claim that results from the collision.
The police spokesman added that "It goes without saying that parents have a responsibility to ensure that their children understand the difference between fantasy (as illustrated in some television programs, some films and some computer games) and reality by the time they are old enough to apply for a driving licence."
