Okay, how, in your normal daily driving habits, do you scare the bejezers
out of your passengers?
For me, it's usually seeing the light at my left turn a block away turn
green, mashing the throttle, actually USING the brakes and then briskly
sweeping a clean line through the intersection. Not really over the speed
limit by much and only briefly, no tire squealing, not even close to ABS
lockup on the deceleration or traction limits when cornering, but the
combination of that maneuver has made some co-workers swear to never ever
ride with me again. ;-)
