You're seriously equating speeding on a road on which a child has been killed by a speeding vehicle to keeping shrubs tidy?

- ryandrake 11y agoMy guess is that 99.9% of the people on the road exceeding the speed limit this morning are not going to kill a child (or hurt anyone) with their car today just from speeding. It could be 99.99%. I don't have the statistics, but there are probably a lot of 9's there. No matter what that number is, there are already laws against hitting kids with your car. Enforce them. Why do we need to ruthlessly enforce something that the majority of drivers do and in most cases does not result in injury? What I'm equating is the mental state of the busybody: The need to go out looking for rules being broken that otherwise would, in all likelihood, go unnoticed.
