Labels:text | screenshot | font | violet | purple OCR: In his first (and best) issue, Ralph Coon outlines the history of the gruesome films you saw during driver's education class that scared you into driving about 10 mph. He even tracks down Earl Deems, 71, who made 19 of the bloodfests (among them: "Mechanized Death," "Wheels of Tragedy," and "Highways of Agony") and quizzes the Ohio retiree about his technique. The film I remember from my formative driving days was "Red Asphalt," produced by the California Highway Patrol, and Coon ferrets out the genius behind that as well (no, it wasn't Erik Estrada). In the most famous driver-death movie of all time, "The Last Prom," a reckless teen plows into a tree and kills his date. "A good boy," explains the narrator, "but a bad driver."
