I remember reading a story a while back. Couple lumberjacks had a serious accident, so while one guy was bleeding out in the back seat, the driver was doing 100+ and the third guy was on the phone with the cops trying to get a police escort.

They ran into a Karen like you, who decided to make sure they went the speed limit. Guy in the back seat died as a result.

    You know, and I know you know, that that's never what is meant by saying it's "safer to travel at the speed of traffic". It's tragic to be sure, but it's not a counter argumement against obeying the law.

    The fuck you talking about? I never said I'd actively block anyone from overtaking me and the traffic won't flow at 100mph. So what the fuck is your point? Start turning on your brain before calling me a Karen.

    No, you said you believed going the speed limit was always safer than going with the flow of traffic.

    Not only are you a Karen, you're a particularly stupid one.

    You are not very good at making a logical argument, are you? You cite an example of a vehicle needing to go over 100mph for an emergency, which firstly doesn't happen very often and secondly doesn't fucking flow with the traffic either.

    Then you called me a Karen because in your mind you made up a scenario where this would happen in my vicinity and I'd be blocking that car whichni wouldn't do willingly but unwillingly probably do anyways even if I'd go with the flow because 100+ mph is not the normal fucking flow of traffic.

    Your argument was so bad that I considered blocking you but I wanted to see if you might have an epiphany but I am losing hope. You seem to be having too much fun making up fantasy scenarios where someone dies because I drive the speed limit.
