Dear Humans,

Yesterday I was driving down Colorado Boulevard when a car passed me driving 20 mph over the speed limit. When I heard the “whoosh”, my head whipped around in surprise. I’ve heard people say that “everyone speeds.” But yesterday on Colorado Boulevard I only saw one person doing it. And I saw about a hundred people driving at or around the speed limit.

You’ll hear similar things in your life about how “everyone does [fill-in the blank].” But it’s not true. Most people most places most of the time do what they’re supposed to do.

Don’t let the rule breakers and troublemakers set the norms for you.

Sincerely,

Mr. Heimbuck
