She said she completely accepted the error, and that speed limits were there for a reason. “I completely accept this was my error, and not one I take lightly. “We have speed limits for a reason, and the safety of my passenger and other road users is not negotiable.” Davidson added it was a “teachable” moment for her. - RNZ
