Wow. Ill remember this the next time I catch myself doing just a little over the speed limit. Physics, people. Physics. Kinetic Energy = ½m*v*v. Get it? Thats velocity SQUARED. Energy goes up exponentially as your velocity increases. Small increases in speed become large increases in the energy youre carrying. That extra 10 mph over the speed limit dramatically increases your kinetic energy _and_ means you travel a lot farther between the moment you realize youre in trouble and when your foot starts to apply the brakes. Dont speed. Youll save money on gas, your car will last longer, youll be less stressed, youre less likely to kill someone or get killed yourself, and youll arrive at work about a minute later. You can live with that.
