Always glad to have your input Old Mech.
All I'm saying is every body needs to be able to handle an emergency. I don't condone driving at twice the limit, but at the same time you have to accept that unforeseen situations do happen on the road. It's not just speeding drivers, it could just as easily be a deer (or Kangaroo
), a kid, an emergency vehicle (which in a modern car you won't hear until it's within 30-50 feet), road debris etc.
