US Government rips off Kaiser Chiefs?

Tell me the soundtrack to this Click It Or Ticket NHTSA ad isn’t a ripoff of the Kaiser Chiefs’ Everyday I Love You Less And Less from Employment.

Listen to the first 15 seconds of each.

I was watching cable TV in all its evil glory a couple nights ago and saw that ad. “Did the KCs license their song to the NHTSA?!”

If it were over-the-hill rockers like Nugent or the Eagles, and now even any of the 80s New Wave bands, sure, I could see it. But KCs are still hip.

Then I saw it again, and realized it was a cheap knockoff.
