Bullet Proof

I’ve heard of people bulletproofing their windows, but never have I seen an ad for it. This ad from India is for the Bullet Proofing of SUV’s, but the fact that the print is so small makes it look like a customized poster for a James Bond movie. Customized car safety kits just aren’t cutting it anymore. There are worse dangers than a flat tire or a broken radiator. Someone shooting your vehicle up with an Uzi is a very pressing issue because nobody wants to be caught out there. Does this mean that even normal people have to worry about surprise attacks in India? Possibly. Diplomats and heads of state aren’t the only people that need protection. Or maybe just people that drive SUV’s are in extreme danger.
