AAMI’s Gaz wins safest driver contest as insurer gives out free roadside assistance to safest customers
Insurance provider AAMI is offering people who score 60 points or more on its Safe Driver app free Roadside Assist launching the promotion with a new campaign featuring Gaz and Neil.
Created by Ogilvy, the campaign follows on from last year’s Safe Driver App campaign which saw Gaz take on Neil in a safety themed drag race, with Gaz revealed as the winner in the new ad after accruing 60 points on the app for safe driving. Last year’s was complemented with a social media campaign which asked people to compete over their AAMI Safe Driver App for the chance to win $100,000.

AAMI executive manager of marketing Josh Wittner said: “Roadside Assist is the latest product in our extensive product portfolio and a natural accompaniment to the very popular Safe Driver App launched last year. Drivers who already use the app – and have reached a safe driver score of 60 points or more – can now take full advantage of Roadside Assist, just like the self- congratulating character Gaz.”
For God’s sake bring back f#@%^*#$ Rhonda.This stuff is beyond awful.What a terrible fall from grace.
escalated much……you’re harsh Billy, I reckon they’re pretty funny.
I’m probably not going to download the safe driver app as a result, but then nor was I going to insure my car with AAMi because of Rhonda. But in terms of defining AAMI as a more fun, irreverent brand rather being dry and staid I like them (the new series, and the Rhonda ones).
Don’t really think much of the campaign, but the “Smoooooth dance off” is a piece of work.
Should be called “How to not pay for YouTube advertising 101”.
(Pre-roll ads on YT are only paid for after video completion or 30 secs of playing time, whichever comes first for the uninformed out there).
I saw that main guy in back to back ads (different brands) yesterday. That’s an achievement.
It’s crap.CRAP there I have said it.Corny old crap.The stuff of 80’s sit coms.Reallyhas anyone actually laughed out loud at these commercials?Smiled even?
That means something is funny.
These aren’t.
And one last thing.
That dark haired bloke isn’t funny in any of his other commercials for a dozen different brands.
Why do agencies keep casting him??
Jeez where’s Rhonda when you need her.
