The argument from the asshole speed freaks are, "Just go with the flow of traffic".
No, assholes. The right thing to do is to obey posted speed limit signs, and keep your distance behind anyone in front of you.
NO ASSHOLES, I will not speed up and risk a ticket for you. It isn't my fault you didn't leave in time. You are not going to pay my speeding ticket or insurance hike if I get pulled over, so FUCKING BACK OFF AND DONT BE A DOUCHEBAG.
Don't never drive in Donegal. Fuckers up there drive 120kph where I'd fear to do 60, and I'm no angel.
No wonder it leads the road deaths league by a country mile.
Speeding does not make you safer. Any physicist can tell you weight and speed matter and the faster you go the longer it takes to stop. And speeding also cuts down on your reaction time too. Just because you have gotten away with it thus far without an accident, doesn't mean you always will.
