While I don't think it's a good idea to smoke weed while driving, I believe it's far more dangerous to go 15 miles over the speed limit, rather than 10 miles below the speed limit.
In this case, statistically speaking, the OP is the more dangerous driver, since speeding is the cause of most accidents.
i dont know the statistics but it seems to me like the slow drivers appear to be the dangerous ones. i figure the slow driving is indicating that they arent comfortable driving.

I've heard this as well, for highway driving at least. Speeding but not driving like a maniac is not that dangerous. Speeding plus weaving and tailgating, etc., is what's dangerous.
Seriously, I was coming up Cherry Lane from Millburn, got behind someone doing 25mph (limit is 35, a lot of people do 45-50, what I do when no one's around is (fifth amendment)). Then out the driver's window comes smoke... and soon the distinct odor of weed.
That road has a lot of cops going up and down it too, so this loser was taking a considerable risk.
On the highway I think speeds above the speed limit are usually safer than going too slow.
But any road with a 35 mile-an-hour limit is dangerously foolhardy at 45-50. They are either curvy, have multiple lights and pedestrian crossings, driveways, or all three plus other hazards like school busses, bicycles, etc.
