The word 'probably' in the ad is the key! When standing in front of God on judgement day, all will know - there is a God! It's a bit late then to be seriously searching for HIM.
Now is the time to turn to HIM. HE is REAL.

A report from Peshawar in Pakistan says that bus drivers in northwest Pakistan are taking audio and video equipment out of their vehicles after Taliban threats to send suicide bombers to attack vehicles in which music or video was played for passengers.
Transport workers received letters from Taliban militants complaining that buses offering music and video entertainment were spreading vulgarity and obscenity. The entertainment is a "source of mental agony for pious people," say the militants.
Meanwhile, in the UK , the Advertising Standards Authority has ruled that ads from atheists stating that "There’s probably no god" were not breaching advertising codes. The ASA said that after assessing more than 300 complaints it concluded that the ads were not likely to mislead or cause offence to people who follow a religion.
The £140,000 atheist ad campaign was launched by the British Humanist Association.
However, the ads did prompt one Christian bus driver to walk off the job, refusing to drive a bus with one of the ads. Ron Heather, from Southampton in the southern UK said he was shocked and horrified by the ads and couldn't drive a bus which displayed one.
The bus company said it would try to accommodate him.

I think that driving should be based more in mathmactics and science for safety sake.

What the world needs is less religion, and more spirituality, in all its variations.
When religion starts affecting driving, you know they have gone to far. And that is any stripe of religion, since they are all deluded anyway about the existence of some superior being watching over them.
