no I think the point the copper was making was that he was going to fast to be able to be cope with the possibility that something might happen for example a drunken ass driving out of the pub. you adjust your speed cos you know there are idiots out there.
you drive based on the road condition... weather etc plus other factors such as a higher probablity of there being someone who has consumed alcohol (even if below the legal limit) if you are passing a pub.
just cos drink driving is illegal doesnt mean I wont look out for drink drivers as a walk across a pub car park!
