If that happens, you're not driving in DC. There are only a handful of roads with speed limits that high and they are major arterial roads that have ample traffic even at 2AM.
At 2AM, you also have decreased visibility and it's even more important to follow the speed limit because it's harder to see pedestrians and cyclists.

- TheCoelacanth 3y agoShould be 0. Deaths from speeding are completely preventable and there is no downside to stopping speeding.
