Answer 2

Answer:

Regis thinks it's wrong to drive over the speed limit simply because he might get punished for doing so. he is demonstrating Pre-conventional stage of morality.

Explanation:

"Kohlberg identified three levels of moral reasoning: pre-conventional, conventional, and post-conventional. Each level is associated with increasingly complex stages of moral development.  

Throughout the preconventional level, a child’s sense of morality is externally controlled. Children accept and believe the rules of authority figures, such as parents and teachers.  A child with pre-conventional morality has not yet adopted or internalized society’s conventions regarding what is right or wrong, but instead focuses largely on external consequences that certain actions may bring."
