I always drive at a speed where I can stop the car in the area of road that I can see. If I can only see 10 meters ahead I have to be able to stop in probably 5 meters of road, accounting for reaction time etc. So then I have to go very slowly. I have completely stopped the car because it started raining so heavily I couldn't see the road.
I am aware that many people drive recklessly. That doesn't change the fact that when they do so, they are neglecting their responsibility to keep themselves and others safe. When their recklessness has consequences, they have to face those consequences.
Maybe if they survive and are rational people they will look inwards and understand that they could have avoided it had they taken their responsibility more seriously.
This isn't a "no one does that" arm wavy topic. This is literally, in every sense of the word life and death. When you drive recklessly you endanger the health and lives of yourself and everyone around you. This is an extremely serious responsibility, traffic is responsible for the vast majority of deaths in modern society. Almost all of those deaths are caused by recklessness and neglect.
I have known many people who have died in traffic. Some due to their own recklessness, others due to others' recklessness. I also know a man who has to live the rest of his life with the burden of having killed a 15 year old girl on her birthday, because him and his buddy wanted to race on public roads.
I have absolutely no patience or sympathy for reckless drivers. Recklessness is a spectrum, obviously driving drunk or racing is more reckless than driving a too fast for the conditions but within the speed limit. But both are reckless. Both cost lives every day.
