Transcript

When I was learning to drive, my mom taught me this rule of speeding that I followed like clinically. And I don't really know why, but it's just really stuck with me. But she once told me, and she even said like her cop friend told her this, that totally could have been a lie, I have no idea. But you can speed up to 10% of the speed limit. So like 27, 28 in 25, or like 60, 61 in a 55. And I don't know why that's stuck with me, but that's just the rule I follow. Literally, I think about it every single day I drive.
