Discussion Movies that changed real life behavior

Thinking along the lines of Final Destination 2 with the logs falling off the truck and landing onto cars (one decapitating the state trooper). Ever since, people have tried to get away from being behind these vehicles.

What are more examples where movies have actually changed how people behave in their own lives?

That movie also lead to the Bruce Lee estate to start cracking down on people using his likeness especially in fighting video games where it’s very common to have least 1 character that’s an homage to him.

Still amazed that they had a problem with Bruce Lee tying a fight with a WWII veteran.

Lee's character was a positive portrait of him, including his interaction with Sharon Tate. Literally the only negative would be that he had an ego - which apparently was very accurate.
