Subsection (d) --> The gov't knows what's best for us (sarcasm).

Obedience to arbitrary and puntative gov't regulations are more
important than saving one's life where a few minutes is a 
difference between life and death.

The legislature who wrote that subsection of the law ought to be 
voted out of office and be ridiculed for pushing something that
arbitrary. All other emergency vehicles can exceed the posted 
speed limit except ambulances and blood vehicles.

Laws like that deserve to be broken.
