Should you go over the legal speed limit?

opening paragraph

Should you go over the speed limit when driving on highways? I would argue to say; no, you never should. the first reason i would say you should not speed is this; you can casue accidents, whether your fault or not. the second reason i list is: you may get pulled over by an officer of the law and be ticketed, or even arrested if you were going fast enough. and my third reason for not speeding is this: it can potentially cause damage to your vehicles' engine, resulting in expensive repairs or the possibility of "totalling" your car.

I do agree it is a harsh punishment but it is harsh to keep people from doing certain crimes and if people do those crimes knowing the punishment then they deserve what happens to them.

High Essay

philosophical lens, a reality without time becomes a little more intuitive and, in principle, possible. A Tale of Two Times McTaggart’s argument against the reality of time has a number of interpretations, but his argument starts with a distinction about ordering events in time.
