An ad that was nominated in both the best and worst category has taken out the top prize at the Fair Go Ad Awards

Hyundai's Santa Fe ad escaped the wrath of the Advertising Standards Authority earlier this week, but was voted the viewers favourite on the annual awards show.

Some people have complained the advert, which features a baby driving a Santa Fe, encourages young children to try to drive a car.

But it won the Best Ad Award, while also being nominated in the top five in the Worst Ad Category.

The Worst Ad honour went to Symbicort Inhalers, which features a man running around, playing tennis, pretending to be Asthma.
