Tim McGraw's 'Highway Don't Care' Video Carries Tragic Message

05/07/2013
. (Radio.com) If you thought the video for Tim McGraw's latest single "Highway Don't Care" would carry a simple and straightforward message of heartbreak, guess again. The video, which features Taylor Swift and Keith Urban, doubles as a public service announcement for those who get the message.

The video premiered Monday (May 6) during a Google+ Hangout session that took place live in front of a studio audience in Nashville.

McGraw appeared in person alongside director Shane Drake (the man behind Little Big Town's spooky "Tornado" video, among many others) to talk about the video and to answer questions from fans.

While the song talks about love lost, the video tells a sad story about the dangers of texting while driving and the heartache that can come as a result.

Outside of the tragic story, the images are lovely to look at, from the scenes shot out the windshield of a moving car to the melancholy moments of Tim standing amidst the misty morning fog on a lonely Tennessee highway. more on this story
