Your Safety First is a 1956 American promotional cartoon created by the Automobile Manufacturers of America. It was directed by George Gordon and written by Norman Wright. The 13-minute short film set in the year 2000 explains the history of the automobile and the improvements to comfort, performance, and safety that have been made over the years. It has been noted as a precursor to the animated TV series The Jetsons (1962–1963), which borrowed heavily on the ideas presented in the cartoon including a three-hour work day, automated flying cars, and robotic arms performing most tasks.
