You see 1, or 100, or 10,000 people driving dangerously who also happen to be speeding and you conclude that anyone who takes the posted speed limit less than 100% literally under any and all conditions is "dangerous." Well, I see a lot of people here advocating strict, 100% adherence to posted speed limits who have the same command of basic logical principles. I guess that means that anyone who regards speed limit signs as sacrosanct is an idiot, hm? -- From the catapult of J.D.
