Of course, but you can't have more respect for both (or neither); that word is what throws me. Had you left it out it would have made sense.
Slightly wrong wording perhaps, but surely obvious enough for those taking part? Most people on here are not idiots.

Let me give you an example from outside the theme of motoring. Which would you respect more: the Chav who guzzles a couple of bottles of cheap plonk but manages to walk and talk without hitting anyone or throwing up or the wine "expert" who lectures about the soil, growing conditions, hint of sweaty saddles with a blackberry finish?
First off, you have it totally wrong. You are giving sterotypes of one of the examples (chav - generally disliked) and describing the other as 'expert'. Already that makes your comparision wrong.
Second, I daresay that some would actually give that more respect. Very little in comparision to the other, but some still would (perhaps someone who thinks wine drinking, and in particular wine experts, are 'toffs').
Perhaps I should have said which
action would have gotten more respect.
In some respects, it is loaded. I fully expect the answer to be the obvious. however, that's because I am assuming that most people on here are reasonable, courteous drivers. So if it's considered to be loaded when I expect most people on here to be sensible, then yes. Otherwise, no.
There are some which think pushing the car to the limit and driving fast is the be all and end all. It's to those few I would like this poll to show otherwise. Also, I found myself assuming the above, and I thought I had best put that to the test. So the poll was for my confirmation also.
I said it was light hearted, and to prove a point. It's not making out speeding is bad, so I can't fathom the problem you have with it is. It's not like it's going to end up in the daily mail.
I would have appriciated it if you would have said from the start, rather than just saying it's pointless based on your own opinion which is, in my own, very far off the mark.
