The speeding was irrelevant in this case because the driver was drunk.
Similar deaths happen all the time when people fall asleep at the wheel doing 70, so using your misguided rationale 70 = dangerous and you'd be banging on about reducing motorway speed limits.
Speeding is definately not cool, but we all do it, driving drunk is attempted murder or manslaughter in my book and should be dealt with accordingly. Don't see too many posts on here claiming drunk driving is cool. Which is afterall what we're dealing with here, although I can see why you are so keen to gloss over this rather trivial fact.
