When I was a senior in high school, my freshman crush (who was in college at the time) died in a drunk driving incident.
No one had to hammer the message home to us. All of us who went to the funeral got it. It CAN happen to you - you are NOT invincible. I know that it made a deep impression on many of us. Sometimes it takes an incident you can connect with - someone you knew, or knew of - to bring home that message.
