The U.K.’s Advertising Standards Authority has banned two ads for Toyota trucks, a poster and an online commercial, for showing the trucks being driven off road. The agency said the ads “presented and condoned the use of vehicles in a manner that disregarded their impact on nature and the environment.” Officials added that the nation’s advertising code requires that ads be “prepared with a sense of responsibility to consumers and to society.”
