This has nothing to do with censorship, the ad simply portrays underage kids driving vehicles wildly. While it's somewhat cute, I think it would have been just as effective to have an 80 year old driver in it and at the end, he could be sitting in a park looking at an old 50's photo of him and his vette.
The point here is that kids today will try the stuff they see on tv. Heck, MTV's Jackass show proved that. So... if todays kids are that stupid, this ad would only encourage them to get a vette so they could fly through the air too. For Chevrolet to act resposibly, I would "pull" the ad too and then make sure it gets distributed all over the net like this so it still reaches its intended audience. Nifty marketing huh?
Told you it had nothing to do with censorship. :)
