Why People Speed On The Highway

I always wonder where people are in such a hurry to drive off to on the highway. I give the benefit of the doubt for emergency but am sure that most people are just trying to get anywhere that's not where they currently are. I think people who speed must be ungrateful, or at least unhappy with how they exist. Speeding is moving away from something, always leaving something behind in rush to get to something else, anything else. Perhaps, since morning commutes are typically solo, we could take the time to think up a few things that we have (a car, a job, a home, a functional body), a reason to slow down because we probably don't slow down for any other part of life either. There is always a small amount of something to be grateful for.
