Voluptuous Biker Babes scene

Ducati Safety Ad
ANCMA Motorcycle Safety Ad Italy
Three print ads from Italy for the same organization promoting motorcycle safety, all done by the same PR agency. One is "sponsored" by Ducati.

Strange print ad from Ducati motorcycles. Another one that escape me...

In a crowded drawing of a city, there's a lone Ducati motorcycle riding. The text says "You have less than a second to see the biker". The other two are more "easier to understand".
