    Where is it Ok to speed?

    As a result of some threads re speeding I was wondering what the consensus re speeding in different places was on here.

    A poll attached where you can tick as many of the options as you like.

    May the bridges I burn light the way.

    I never speed while doing my laces - I like to take my time with them to ensure my shoes stay on.

    And I never speed, but if I wanted to I'd do it early in the morning on the weekend when the open road is very quiet...... .

    I speed all of the time. I just don't do it to excess.

    And when I do, I keep a good eye out for cops.

    Been quite lucky so far.

    Speed is relative.

    Speed kills.

    I never speed.

    I never speed. Speed kills, this I know , for the gubbermint tells me so.

    Speed LIMITS are another matter.
