We know that all sins are equal; all sin separates us from God. Do you feel that breaking the speed limit is a sin in that it does not obey local authorities? (Rend unto Caesar what is Caesar's)
Do we take it seriously enough?
Should we take it as seriously as the struggle with alcoholism or lying?
What are your thoughts on some sins being worse than others? My personal opinion is that all sins are equal but some sin has a larger social, personal, physical, and economical cost to it. Therefore, we're more likely to view the sins that affect ourselves and others as "worse," but in the end--they all separate us from God.

Gods view (if we break the least of the commands we are guilty of the whole law) as for as what his true justice thinks of sin,
Gods view as far as temporal or societal impact of some sins (which is why he hed differing punishments for different sins in the law)
if we fail to see it this way, we will think we are better than we really are. and lose sight of the grace of God.
