there is a commercial running in NL, something like this:

{central theme to these series of commercials for an insurance company:
whatever the trouble, insured with us, your solution is just a call away}

guy arrives at his car trunk, with a loaded shopping cart, in a parking
garage
he let's go of it momentarily, it starts rolling down a slope, camera
dramatically following the cart .. on collision course with a nice
white car, with an oldster completely unaware of the incoming cart

just in time, he sees it coming, backs up his car quite speedily,
the camera follows the cart harmlessly crashing into a wall.. pffeww

then a zoom in on the backed up car -
smashed right into the front of a ferrari

....even Apeldoorn bellen :-)

what's quite clever, there is now a competition where one can
send in a scenario to the agency producing these commercials
from which new commercials are made :-) cool.
