They collect their paycheques, I am not talking about students here. BUT I also know some students as well.
I agree that roads are designed for at least 10 km/h more than the speed limit, and I agree that the speed limit is set for the "lowest common denominator." The lowest person may be because of their driving skill or even vehcile capabilities. For example, just because new cars can handle 120 on Deerfoot doesn't mean a 30 year old truck can. You can't force people to upgrade their vehicles, so the rest of us have to cater down low.
But those of us who have newer vehicles and are able to drive faster on the roads should be allowed to do so without fearing the wrath of the other drivers, especially when it's safe for us to do so. That is what I do, I drive how fast I want to drive, and as long as it's safe the slower drivers shoulnd't be bothered by it.
P.S. Yes I am a speed junkie, that is a good way of putting it!
