I learned at 9 years old, so if I had any misconceptions, I don't remember them.

Yep. Learned to drive on a tractor. Then drove cars around the property. Started driving on the road at 14. Got my first speeding ticket at 15, before I had a license.

I thought speed limit signs should be followed.

That it's fun. In America, it's not. Half the population doesn't even want to do it.

It can be…. when you’re not spending 100% of the time being concerned for your own safety due to the actions of others.
But a sunset drive on an empty backroad or a midnight drive with hardly anyone on the road or a late night drive through the forest… peace can be found in that. It’s just unfortunately rare

Surely idiots on the road aren’t that common, right?

That other driver knows what they are doing.
