Alex@rtnVFRmedia Suffolk UK<p>We have a problem in this country where some young / new drivers aren't really that interested in <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/cars" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cars</span></a> and neglect <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/maintenance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>maintenance</span></a> / vehicle checks, others who are get encouraged into bad <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/driving" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>driving</span></a> habits such as <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/speeding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>speeding</span></a> from YouTube/TikTok etc - and no "middle ground" where new drivers are encouraged to drive defensively (such as exploring unfamiliar areas alone and in good daylight, and being mindful of speed/hazards)</p>
ABY BUT IN ALLCAPS<p>Question for drivers who have had trouble keeping to speed limits, especially those with adhd:</p><p>How do you teach yourself not to speed? </p><p>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. </p><p>This one was for over 10km over. </p><p>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. </p><p>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. </p><p>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). </p><p>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. </p><p>_____</p><p>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.</p><p><a href="https://aus.social/tags/audhd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>audhd</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/autism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>autism</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/adhd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>adhd</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/neurodiverse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>neurodiverse</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/driving" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>driving</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/speeding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>speeding</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/SpeedingFine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SpeedingFine</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/PleaseHelp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PleaseHelp</span></a></p>
