I've never sped, not once.

Wait, you've never once gone even 1 MPH over the limit? Do you have a chauffeur?

Never, not once!

Making up your own rules? Isn't that like awarding yourself a national championship five years later for no reason?

It's generally ignored by whom? Not in our household, and not among my daughter's friends.

I don't know if "most", but some of my older kids' friends were allowed to drive
