Question for drivers who have had trouble keeping to speed limits, especially those with adhd:
How do you teach yourself not to speed?
I got pulled over yesterday and got a ticket for speeding. It's my 4th in the almost 6 years I've been driving - although the other 3 have been for less than 10km over and was following the flow of traffic.
This one was for over 10km over.
I was passing someone who sped up as I was passing them, and I didn't notice I'd sped up so much to get past.
I've noticed that I'm more likely to speed when I haven't taken my ritalin, because I feel anxious being behind another car and not being able to see ahead of everything.
I also feel like I drive better if I don't take my ritalin, because my reflexes are faster and I'm taking in ALL the things around me instead of having a more narrow focus.. so I prefer not to take it if I'm going to do a long drive (yesterday was Bathurst to Sydney and back.. so like 8 hours).
I don't really have a sense of how fast I'm going, and I do check my speedometer but everytime I do that it's taking my eyes off the road so I can't be constantly looking at it.
_____
I don't want a lecture about the dangers of speeding. I KNOW.. it's literally why I'm asking, Chad. I was a nurse for a long time - I have literally seen what speeding does to people, probably more so than most.

We've updated our Compendium of Cabinet Codebreakers.
You'll see that while the PM has let his home secretary off the hook, we've added the #speedingfine controversy to the list for Suella Braverman.
Have we missed any?

Will #SuellaBraverman survive her #speedingfine 'problem'?
Much will hinge on whether she can frame the request for a one-to-one speed awareness course as a 'security issue';
if she can, then she'll likely be able to deflect criticism, if she can't then (another) break of the ministerial code looks likely;
if the latter, #RishiSunak's claim to be running a Govt. of integrity will confront the reality of a Minister who's happy to trample the ministerial code (or may be unaware of its content).
