Summary: Second World War British Ministry of Information newsreel trailers instructing both drivers and pedestrians of the best way to travel safely in the blackout.
Description: The film opens with circular light in the darkness and a scream of "look out". A man carrying a torch then enters a small cafe and speaks to the man behind the counter "Gawd Blimey! Just had a narrow squeak outside" to which the man answers "You ought to use your loaf in the blackout Sid, have a cup of tea". A driver enters and exclaims "some mug just tried to sling himself under my wheels, the way they go about you'd think they were tired of life!". The two men then sit down together at the same table and begin accusing each other "you're the merchant who nearly knocked me over" "you're the chap who nearly gave me heart failure". Animation then explains the cause of the near miss - the driver had only a limited view of the road and pavement with his restricted headlights so could not see the man as he walked unexpectedly across the road and he was dazzled by the man's torch. The driver is told not to drive so fast and the man is told to try to walk in a straight line and to avoid dazzling drivers with his torch. The conversation concludes with the man saying "I get your point Professor Blackout, but don't drive too fast" to which the driver replies "Okay Donny Dazzletorch". The film ends with multiple end captions LOOK OUT IN THE BLACKOUT and the shout of "look out!".
