If a vehicle has no speed then it is in fact stationary, thus cannot fullfil its task of moving from one place to another. So infact, speed is necessary. Also, if you care to read what i wrote properly, I stated that the exceeding of an arbitrary speed limit cannot be garunteed to cause an appreciable increase in risk of harm. Drugs are not necessary in any form, and do garuntee harm, whether you accept it or not.
The exceeding of a speed limit doesnt bring about an increased level of crime either.

Dude, you really haven't got a clue about drugs then have you. I know both the positives AND the negatives about what I do and the positives far outweigh the negatives in my opinion.

What pray tell, are the positives?

If you think that 0 people a year die from canabis, you are sadly mistaken. And why do you think that because one harmful drug is currently available, that means we should allow another? That's just stupid.
As I said, speeding and doing drugs simply arent comparable. They may both be against the law, but even then thats a tenuous link, as Lyn points out, one is a criminal matter and the other is not.
