Speeding. No one thinks big of you. is a multimedia advertising campaign launched in June 2007 in New South Wales, Australia, to convince young drivers that speeding and irresponsible driving is not 'cool'.

The iconic image of the campaign is a wiggling pinkie finger, emblematic of the observer communicating to another observer their shared opinion that the speeding youth is not displaying virility by speeding, and is "overcompensating" for a small penis.

Several images were used in the television advertisement:

  • several young women seeing the speeder;
  • an older woman sharing a wiggling finger with a young woman;
  • a male friend of the driver sharing a wiggling finger with another male friend as they ride in the back seat as their mutual friend drives stupidly.
