Something happened to the warning movies you saw in Driver's education class in the late 1960s. Instead of stern warnings with buckets of ketchup like BLOOD ON THE ROAD, we got sunny pieces like this, filled with fluffy music and warnings that if you got caught drinking illegally, you would never get a job with the federal government, because they demanded people of the highest moral character. Must've broken Bill Clinton's heart.
I can assure you that we were not concerned with this issue in 1969, which is clearly aimed at the people who aspired to be part of the Pepsi Generation, judging by the visuals.
One visual gloss is interesting: when the kids go into the bar with fake ID, they are dressed informally. All of the adults getting sloshed are dressed formally, the men in suits and ties, the women in dresses and discreet jewelry. The youngsters can't figure out how they are singled out for attention.
