Where are the number of people saying that speeding is actually safer?
People are arguing that keeping up with traffic is safer and if this involves speeding than so be it. Having taken defensive driving courses myslef I don't see how you can argue that this is wrong, unless the speeds were excessive and I don't see 110-120 on Deerfoot as excessive.
People also have said that in relation to really slow drivers that perhaps speeding, again not excessively, is safer or at least as safe. I would argue that going 20 over or under the speed limit or flow of traffic are equally unsafe.
I find only one poster that seems to be advocating the position that speeding is safer. At that argument obviously holds little water.
