You most definately are not conciderate to any other road user when driving at speeds that break the limits set for that road you have absolutely no idea what is round the next bend or when a tyre will blow out or when a animal or any foriegn object will enter your path or are you that arrogant you think you can see the future .

You don't have to exceed the limits for a road to be dangerous.
50mph into a 90deg blind corner on a country road will get you, or someone, killed - but you haven't exceeded the limit.
Whereas 75-80 on the same road where is straightens out and you have good visibility for a mile or two is perfectly safe.
I said I drive fast....not stupid.
And I'm afraid it's numbskulls such as yourself and Mr Deegan that can't differentiate between the two.
Accidents do happen even when the drivers are driving to the conditions of the road and within limits ,people will die or get badly injured .The limits are there as a compromise between getting from A-B in a timely fashion and as safely as possible ,they are not a target to be reached and passed .
