What if everyone drove the speed limit on the Interstate? (I know, I know. I'm dreaming here.)
Right off the top of my heard, I can think of four benefits
Your vehicle would use significantly less gasoline. (Did you know that, if you buy a new car and drive the speed limit, you will do better than the window mileage sticker because that mpg rating assumes you will speed?) Using less gasoline is patriotic. It puts less money in the pockets of oil producers who hate us.
Since you would be burning less gasoline and producing less pollution, you would thus be caring for God's creation. (That's a Judeo-Christian practice.)
You would be cultivating patience. (That's a Christian practice.)
You would be more relaxed, because you wouldn't be jockeying for position in a constant attempt to gain 17 seconds at a time. Think of the better mood you'd be in when you arrive at work, or back home to your loved ones!
Actually, I'm not dreaming, wondering if more people would drive the speed limit. I'm hoping! (Hope is another Christian practice.)
