Speed is the cause of most
Speed is the cause of most crashes involving young drivers, if you're running late speeding is not going to help much - even going 20 or 30mph over the speed limit is only going to save a minute or so, it's just not worth the risk to yourself or others on the road. Seatbelts give you a 50% better chance of surviving a crash, always make sure everyone in a vehicle is belted in - a person flying around the inside of a vehicle can kill other occupants, please be safe and live long!
