before driving instruction, probably like you.

After driving insruction, very conservative.

Most cars on the highway pass me as I try to maintain space in front so that I have time to react to nonsense up ahead. If folks are doing parallels on the highway I back off and move over to the slow lanes as well. That's the irony. Those who don't know how to drive (other than in straight line) are usually going 100 mph in the fast lane. Those who are well aware of just how few people know how to drive their high horsepower sedans and SUVS at those speeds back off far away. The greater your skill, the less you limit your escape routes from their antics.

public roads are not the place to test the limits of the car. The tires are there for when others force you to test them. That's why the piston Gods gave us a cheap affordable form of racing called autocross. Cheaper than the track and safe autocrossers make for safer track drivers.
