If you were travelling 100km at 100km/h it would take you and hour to get to your destination. At 80km/h it would take you 1h15m. If you were travelling half that distance you would only be saving 8 minutes. Y’all want to risk dying to save maybe 8 minutes? It’s not only your driving you need to worry about, it’s other people on the road.
