Completely wrong. I don't know what else to say.

What's completely wrong with that statement is that it has this 'absolute' tone to it. In reality what's unsafe is many cars on one road with large variations of speed. Ie a car going 100 on a road in which the traffic is travelling at 80. Also irresponsible unsafe driving is going at 100 km/h in the left hand lane on Deerfort when the rest of the left lane traffic is travelling at 120-125km/h. Yes those other people are speeding and are wrong to do so, but since everyone is doing it the safest thing to do is to stay in the right hand lanes and let them blow by. This is why the Deerfoot has signs that say "
Slower traffic use right hand lanes" and not "
Those going under 100 km/h use the right hand lane." You can only control your own actions in life and not those of others. Thus drive as best as you can and leave it to the cops to slow these people down. Over time I find that the Deerfoot ghost cars claim many of these 'asshats'!
