Where I live, running red lights, easing through right-on-red turns without stopping or looking, and speeding in school zones are very common. In my view, these are related problems: people develop an entitlement to speed 10-15 mph on the interstate, broaden that to speeding 10-15 mph everywhere, and start disregarding traffic laws more generally.
- lowbloodsugar 9y agoIf one views the problem as one of lawlessness, then it certainly looks that way, and certainly there are people like that. I view the problem as one of safety: drive 25mph through school zone because kids, drive 80mph on freeway because safe. Regardless, if you continue to drive at 65mph when everyone else is doing 75mph, then you are making accidents more likely. This is no longer the moral choice. This is just righteousness.
