The new Volkswagens are equipped with a feature called Front Assist, which is supposed to give you more time to act in an emergency situation. I would seem people could use something similar in their daily goings-on as well.
These simple comic ads are good examples of a suggestion of time by repetition, a technique which has some comedic value as an added bonus.
The artwork for these ads is by the Brasilian Pict Estudio, and is quite lovely in close-up too.
