This 70s-era education video titled “The Final Factor” sponsored by the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety takes the viewer through various fictional scenarios that lead to road accidents. Throughout each scenario, there is an analysis of the factors that led up to that particular road accident and then a clip where the mistakes are rectified and the emergency averted. The film appears to have been shot in New Jersey and Philadelphia near the I-95 / I-295 interchange. The AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety is an American not-for-profit that was founded in 1947 in order to publicly support charitable research and education organizations dedicated to saving lives by preventing traffic crashes and reducing injuries when crashes occur. The film’s crew include cinematographer Brian Kellman, film editor David Dean, associate producer David Darby, producer Peter Skolnick and director Joseph Gilford.
