Analyzing Advertisements

This advertisement says "In town, car accidents don't just happen to cars". It is endorsed by the Securite Routiere, the French institute for safety. The claim of this advertisement is to tell us that child injury from car accidents can be stopped and prevented. The advertisement's context, says "Slow down", which appeals to Ethos since it tells the audience to stay cautious and alert, therefore, this advertisement gives readers a sense of trust,discipline and reliability.  I can analyze that this advertisement is targeted especially towards adults who are careless while driving, or children who have experienced injuries from car accidents. Pathos are involved in this advertisement, as you can clearly see a girl with a damaged head, looking solemn and serious. Emphasizing young children in this advertisement also proves to parents and adults that their children are important and deserve better care.
