The chitty road tax advert is a 2002 public information film from the DVLA, which is the UK agency that deals with driver and vehicle licensing.
The advert is a parody of the 1968 musical film Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, which features a flying car and its adventures.
The advert uses the same tune and characters, but changes the lyrics to fit the road tax theme. The advert shows the car being caught by a DVLA camera and clamped in mid-air, while the DVLA agents and other characters dance below.
There was also a radio version of the advert, which presumably used the same song and voice actors. However, the page does not provide any information on how to access the radio version or when it was aired.
You can watch the video of the advert by clicking on the link [DVLA – Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (2002, UK)]. The video is about 40 seconds long and shows the scenes described in the text. The video also has the DVLA logo and the slogan “No Exceptions, No Excuses, No Escape” at the end.
The film is not very scary, but it has a cameo appearance by the Child Catcher, who is a villain in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. The Child Catcher is a man who hunts and imprisons children in Volgeria. Some people may find him frightening, especially after he got a new top hat after he left Volgeria. This is a reference to a prank website that claims that the Child Catcher changed his appearance and moved to a different country. Baron Bomburst stayed in Volgeria after his soldiers locked him in his dungeons in his castle leaving it deserted and in a Volgeria a free country
