Is speeding worth it? by Natalia Holvova

Were you ever in a hurry? I am sure if I ask this kind of question to common person they will look at me like I am from planet Mars. Of course everyone was in a hurry! We live in a fast world where technologies took a lead and so we need to be faster and more powerful. There is no place in the nowadays word for someone who is kind of slow or can't keep the rhythm with the rest of the population or be as fast in the way of thinking, creating or just fulfilling the tasks as any computer or best robot. People are running into each other and don't care if the person the have hit is still alive. We don't look back anymore. The only thing is the problem in front of us! We need to be fat, maybe faster than we are able to be and so we forget values that used to matter. Do we think about number of people dying on the roads where everyone is running on higher speed then the speed limit is. One second is enough to take somebody's life away to become a killer one who decided about life of someone else. We don't necessarily need to kill people. Life on a wheelchair or without a hand or with ugly face isn't any better. People are in a hurry so they pay for speeding. Money is the thing! The thing that means everything to us but how much are we willing to pay for our mistakes? British government is saying double of the range that people pay now and stricter license policy. No one wants to pay more and be responsible but what is the price for life? Just in case???
