speeding is acceptable because you can still control your car going 10% faster then the posted limit with no problem. besides, there is speeding, and then there is HOLY FUCK IM GOING THE SPEED OF LIGHT IN A 40 ZONE!
drinking and driving is not acceptable because it messes with your ability to reason. that truck you think is 100 meters away is really 20 meters away, bam. i can barely play forza when i start drinking, never mind drive a real car.
