If "other people" includes sailboats, you may already know that sailing can involve some unpredictable—yet major—"moves". If you're going somewhere speedily, and distracted—say—by your GPS, you risk collision.
Even if you don't collide,
you've made no friends should a law against excessive speed—on protected inland waters—become prominent.
Collision damage is magnified with speed: it's Physics—
and that's a law!
