Allow me to pose a hypothetical situation: Say you were let go from your job a while ago. Things went OK for a while, but last month you had to pay some of your bills with a credit card. Now, let's assume you're about to embark on a 120-mile drive along a rural route (let's pull US-30 out of thin air) to visit your family for a long weekend. Knowing that money's a little tight, should you fulfill your lead-foot habit and cruise through rural Ohio at 70 mph?
Guess what your friendly neighborhood dumbass decided on. Like I needed another $150 cost to absorb.
Dammit.
