Please stop racing and speeding

Two more people killed and families devastated by two young men driving too fast. I'm sure they thought they had the skills and the cars to do whatever they wanted to. Now two families have lost these two women on the Canadian Thanksgiving weekend.

I've read enough posts defending speeding and racing as just a little safe fun when done properly. I'm sure those that do defend it also have good sound arguments in favor of rape and child pornography as well.

Please stop speeding.

There is a 45 zone near my school where quite literally everyone goes at least 60 in the right and about 70-80 in the left lane. If this road is like that one then they weren't racing/speeding at all just driving in the left lane with or slightly faster than the flow of traffic. Let's not jump to conclusions. But yeah, don't drive wrecklessly. There is a line between driving hard and driving wrecklessly, don't cross it.

wtf this is probably one of the stupidest comparisons I've ever heard of.
