I'm guilty of this on a daily basis,
it has to do with people's personality
We are the same people that walk everywhere in a rush, that constantly multitask, etc, etc.
We constantly feel like the day is too short to get things done and want to save every possible minute.
Not saying that it's ok .... just explaining how I'm sure a lot of people like me think.
Not necessarily. I walk fast but don't drive that way. At least, not in heavy traffic. I think that driving fast (exceeding speed limit) in heavy traffic is reckless, regardless of how skilled you are as a driver. Just because most others are doing it doesn't compel me to join the club.
A lot are in a big hurry to get to Wallmart so they can spend a half-hour in the checkout line. I do find it odd that half the drivers on the road are A-holes to one degree or the other, yet are almost always well behaved in checkout lines.

You do know that speed limits are basically random don't you? There is no reason for the particular speed limits selected in most places. It is just a random number that sounds good to someone at the time. A safe speed varies with conditions, condition and type of car, driver alertness and skill/experience weather, road conditions etc. A safe speed is a safe speed, it has nothing to do with speed limits on a sign.
Wow. judgmental !! How many of them do you actually know? My wife is the sweetest most caring person you will ever meet. If you do not love her, something is wrong with you, but she tends to have a lead foot at times, especially on empty rural roads with absurd speed limits.
Why do so many people drive like they are taking somebody to the ER or something? It seems to me like there are actually two species of drivers on the road - Homo Sapiens, and Homo Alwaysinabighurryus.
They’re younger than you.
