There is an important difference between the two which you obviously fail to see. Abusing visitor parking affects the convenience of others and shows no consideration for the rights of others. My busting a few speed limit and passing slower traffic does not affect anyone else.
As far as the concept of putting "other people at risk," I completely disagree.
Your argument is akin to me asking you to drive your car less frequently because every time you get behind the wheel, you put other people's lives at risk.
I'd rather drive at a reasonable and prudent speed which keeps my mind alert, which allows me to see more, evaluate potential threats, and react quicker.
In case you haven't noticed, driving the speed limit is mind-numbingly boring. BC drivers are the slowest in the country yet we have twice the accident and fatality rate as drivers in Ontario, which are FAR FAR more "aggressive" drivers than British Columbians.
