Define "stupid and slow drivers." Would that mean going below the speed limit? The speed limit is a law not a suggestion.
I'd say a stupid driver is a person that tailgates and goes far over the speed limit and changes lanes without signaling and zig zagging through traffic. I hope you're not that type of driver since that would mean that you are a "stupid driver."
Speeding is more dangerous to yourself and other drivers on the road. All the cars around you and the passengers in those cars and in your car are dependent on each other to be safe drivers. being a safe driver means adhering to safety and traffic laws.
Speeding is more dangerous to everyone on the road. Speeding is less gasoline efficient. Speeding is more dangerous to the long term health of your car.
I hope you can list for me the good points of speeding. I can't really think of any. Those that chronically speed are generally young or irresponsible people. Impatient.
