give your car an instance name of "car"

put this code on your lampost movie clips:

onClipEvent(enterFrame){
if (this.hitTest(_root.car))_root.gotoAndStop(10)
}

and on frame 10 put your losing screen. Or whatever frame you want

Correction to above code
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
if (this.hitTest(_root.car)){
_root.gotoAndStop(10)
}

Typing too fast there Afro?

actually, no :p

if there is only one statement following an if condition, extra brackets are not required. same with else. This is a perfectly fine piece of code:

if(true)trace("true")
else trace("false")

Mah fault, the bracket from the handler threw me off a bit ;) Afro > Deathcon
