If you don’t agree with the concept of good or bad people, you dont have to answer just down vote. If you think a person is good or bad based on where they were born and live you don’t have to answer just down vote.

    This might be a hot take. I have a hard time with people who constantly drives above the speed limit. To me it says a lot about who they are.

    E.g.

    • they believe that rules don’t apply to them

    • that they are egoistic

    • that they are reckless and can’t foresee the potential consequences.

    • that they lack empathy

      I think this one depends on which country you’re in. Speed limits here in the US are artificially low. There is an unspoken agreement that everyone goes 5-10 over. I go to Ireland once every couple years and the speed limits on the rural back roads are more like the actual physical limit. Like 80 kph on a winding one lane road that’s barely paved. I’ve tried to reach the speed limit before and it didn’t feel safe at all.

        I believe you’re right. In Denmark the speed limit on highways are 130 km/h and limited to 110 km/h near the larger cities. Country roads have limits of 80 km/h, some 90 km/h and some 70 km/h.

        Driving 150 km/h on the highway is not safe, when everyone else is driving 130. And most of our highways only have two lanes in each direction.

        The speed limit is also typically 80km/h on these barely paved roads in Denmark.
