Although I cannot disagree with the fact that two people with equal cars; the guy going slower will stop sooner.
However the cumulative effect could be worse. For example with the speeder- he is the only one who has to brake when encountering speed limit traffic. Whereas with the guy going under the speed limit; everybody who encounters him has to brake and/or manoevre (sp?) to not hit him.
Obviously both people present different circumstances; and any example which glorifies the one will villify the other. Bottom line is to stick to the flow of traffic.
