Why does it seem that everyone kicks their speed up in a snowstorm,,,just to show off?

Question

when the snow clears....they go their normal 65...I don't get it

Answer 1

We believe too much of what we see in commercials, in the movies and on tv...They drive that way - so can I - we have the same car (almost)...And besides, that speed limit sign says 45 and I always drive at least 50...What's the problem??...This is just one of several influences that we all drive under - and we don't even realize it.

The toughest part about driving is the mental part - being totally focused on everything that is going to affect the way I operate my vehicle...If I think that I can make this baby doll do whatever I want it to, I am doomed...If I am hung over or sleep depraved, chances are I will not make it to my destination.

Driving is tough enough on dry road surfaces...Throw in some rain, snow and ice and the threat factor to my well being goes through the roof...It's all mental...Look out for #1 first.

All the best

carelessness,is the most common cause for it,people want to hurry up and get home or ever where their going to,some don't even realize the dangers involved in speeding up,snow and bad weather seems to make people think they can drive like they do in normal weather,that's why i stay home when its bad weather,to many careless drivers on the roads,good luck.
