Have you ever taken a defensive driving course? You can articulate it however you like but excessive speed does kill. It's a proven fact however you like to jutify it for yourself. I don't consider somebody going at the speed limit to be a slow driver either. How on earth can they be? To be perfectly honest I do occasionally speed on the highway (120 or so) until I come to my senses and slow down to the posted speed limit or close to it. I think most people just like to flout rules. If it was 120 on the Deerfoot you would probably drive 130 to 140. Am i wrong?
You, and other speeders out there, may not agree with this but here you go:
