Impeding traffic, increasing accident rates, and arriving more slowly make for a poor lifestyle pitch. Speed differentials hurt everyone, including you.
Legitimately good bait, but preventing someone from driving exactly the speed limit, a construct lagging severely behind current safety standards, is more important to me than simply calling it out.
Arriving 10% later is well worth additional safety. And for any accidents due to drivers around me not respecting the speed limits, they are to blame. I’m honestly baffled by the “you are the problem for following rules” proposition. No, you are the problem for breaking them. They are there for a reason.
The safety standards were set when roads were not dominated by multi-ton trucks - something that eats away all the progress we’ve made to both braking and safety systems, and then a bit more.
Thinking everyone is just a backwards thinker who didn’t bother to change the limits would be far from truth.
Here’s a brilliant idea: do not speed, and you won’t have to put the brake pedal to the metal.
If someone speeds in front of you, unless you speed too, this won’t be an issue.

The most lawful evil comment I’ve ever seen on Lemmy. And I didn’t downvote, someone else did.
Lol :D
Also yes, it sucks that it doesn’t show who votes. Makes for a lot of confusion in discussions.
