Fast Driving Scare You?

I'm terrified when people drive faster than the surrounding traffic. As my driving instructor told us "it's not speed that kills, its disparity in speed that kills." Basically, it's unsafe if you're driving faster than the flow of traffic. I'm also terrified if people are going more than 30 km/h on a smaller residential road.

I am more prone to drive fast than my husband, but it depends on the vehicle. Some of them pick up and go so fast and smooth you cannot even tell. There are some stretches of highway where fast speeds are okay, but you have to use your judgment. We tend to keep it sixty and below because it saves a bundle on gas. I wonder how people can afford those gas prices going that fast and wasting that much fuel?

As long as he is not weaving in and out of traffic, fast driving does not scare me. Slow driving on the other hand, makes me rather nervous as when my husband was alive, and we were going some place especially on vacation, we had planned to be at a certain time. So it depends on the driver and the conditions of the road.

Hi. Rallon. Yes, fast driving does scare me. I don't like fast driving at all. People should not drive too fast, they could end their lives. Anything that is over 75 mph, is too fast for me. I agree with you, when it is raining the road is just too wet to be traveling on especially, at a higher speeding rate. What the heck is wrong with some people? Do they not care about other drivers lives or their own lives?

Yes, it does. Especially when the fact that the people are driving behind the wheel, I would really be a bit hesitant to be around, even if they are driving the speed limit. It is really scary to think these people are the types that are going to relish a speed limit. I mean, being behind the wheel of a car, it leaves no room for error. Therefore, who in their right mind would want to limit their room for error. There are a couple of places that have sixty mile per hour speed limit and to be honest, I really am a bit paranoid to be anyway near them. In fact, for some people, they really shouldn't go a mile per hour above thirty five or even forty. Then again, people don't plan ahead and they speed a lot. When its the law, to go to an insane amount, why do I see people going that insane speed limit and then going even faster after a while.

Anytime I am not the driver I am very uneasy in a car, even if they are going regular speed. There are many times I feel I could benefit from a Valium when I get in the car with my boyfriend because he drives way too fast and comes close sometimes. I often tell him slow down, slow down. Makes for a very dizzy ride. 85 miles as the speed limit seems way too fast Rallon. I mean I have been known to go 80 on the expressway but that is when it is an open road. Fast driving and rain definitely do not mix, it seems the car brakes would be slippery and anything can happen.

Yes, that's pretty fast and it would scare me. I sometimes travel fast when it's only me in the car and the conditions are normal. I live in an area where there are long stretches of straight road and little or no traffic. I can travel for over an hour and see no other traffic. I think it's important to drive for the conditions taking into account the weather and the condition of the road with regard to potholes, rough surface and such. I think you need to have experience and to be fully aware of the capabilities of you and your vehicle and drive so you know you can maintain control at all times. It beats me why they make regular cars that are so fast and powerful these days. It is just unnecessary in my book.

hi Rallon I dislike p eople driving fast just for the heck of it when I am riding with them. please stay within the speed limit and slow down with bad weather conditions so you do not slide all over the road as the life you save just might be mine. lol

Fast driving alone does not scare me, but it needs to be safely and I don't believe in driving too close to other vehicles. I also don't like people weaving in and out of traffic. At higher speeds that is very unsafe.

I'm not really afraid of fast driving even when i'm not the driver. I like the thrill of being in a fast car. Fast driving is fine with me, but not speeding. There's a difference between the two. I like excitment, but i don't like to pay the consequences of it with my life. ONe can be a safe driver while driving fast, but speeding can never be safe at all.

I'm very uncomfortable riding with a fast driver. I couldn't help but synchronize my feet as if I also have foot break or break pedals infront of me. My heart even seemed to leaping from its original position to another area. Fast driving scares the hell out of me. But when I am in control of the steering wheel and when driving on highways, I, myself, am a fast driver as well. So the feeling is far different when you're the one in control of the wheels as compared when you're just a passenger.

hi, i am really scare on fast driving,because i afraid to be crashed and accident because of this,but sometimes fast driving could also be good to me especially when i am late to my work or someone i meet,because it can bring to the place early or exact to the time we talk.

i always get scared when the driver starts to drive fast like when i am on a bus. it makes me mad and also nervous and scared. but when it is my sister who drives a tell her every time but if it is my dad, when he drives fast and we tell him to slow down, he doesn't listen and even goes even faster and then get mad at us for telling him what to do. i get so upset with him, i don't wanna talk to him when he gets mad us without any reason at all

wel i would only get scared at like 90 on a mormal road and 160 on highway so no texas should raise it to 85

I tend to like fast driving. It is sort of exciting and thrilling, depending on who the driver is. I am afraid of fast driving if I am the driver. However, I trust my driver as long as it is not reckless. However, I do agree with you that fast driving and rain do not mix.

It doesn't matter how fast someone is driving, I cannot ride comfortably when someone else is driving. I know what I'm doing behind the wheel but I suspect nobody else does! The only people I can stand to be a passenger with is my dad and my sister--ironically, both of whom drive very fast and scare most people!

This depends on how much i trust the driver. Driving too fast can be dangerous but it can also be exciting. Having control is much more important than having great speed.

What is the speed limit anyway? I like fast and smooth driving... But sometimes, it gets me scared too, especially if there are many big vehicles nearby that may hit us- and yes, especially if it's raining. People shouldn't be in a hurry all the time, or they wouldn't reach their destination.

so afraid because human life is only one, what if you met an accident???

when i am at driving i will go fast rather than my driver speed i will go as fast as 100 km per speed in one hour so i never afraid of that but my driver afraids while i am driving in a speedy manner but not always but sometimes i will be in that much of speed why because i show my driver how will u go that speed to reach the accident thats why he never get speed on that type he can go slowly
