Here he comes to save the DAY!

She caught me looking at space marine speeders, asked why I am looking at ugly tiny tanks, and I could not stop myself from explaining how this thing is not a tank and that it, in fact, flies really fast

She said it has no business flying looking like this, and that she would expect more air time from a wingless bumblebee than a space marine speeder

You’re in a very heavy chunk of metal going at a high speed. You know that one wrong move could kill somebody. It even happens at safe speeds! And yet, your need to go vroom vroom is more important than human lives.

And no, it’s not okay just because it’s worked out so far. Every single speeding crash was caused by someone who could handle the extra speed, until they couldn’t.

I do not make exceptions for people who are speeding for “reasons.” Maybe if you’re in a rural area and the ambulance won’t make it in time. But for 99% of cases, you’re just making the passengers less safe, not more. Arriving safely is better than not arriving at all.
