Always remember you're driving a large metal thing that weight 1-2 metric tons and carry a lot of energy. Increasing speed by x2 means increasing braking distance by x4.
To get a sense of the energy in a moving car, cut the engine, put it on neutral on a flat parking lot. Try pushing it forward with your bare hands. Now imagine the energy needed to move or stop a car at full speed.
