Elmacik:
Yeah couldn't agree more. But I still insist on saying being how much scary depends on the vehicle you are driving.
Marcus Forsberg:
I still find myself terrified of driving my own scooter since I hurt my leg and arm a year ago. And that only reaches 45km/h. :P Riding on the back of my friend's moped when he was driving in over 90km/h however... that was great fun! And greatly idiotic, too.

Yes, you're right.
What I'm contending, is that having speed without "scary", is what's killing people.
If going fast makes you scared, as it should, you wouldn't do it.
Arantor:
Speed itself doesn't kill, it's the rapidity of stopping suddenly that kills ;)
But when people are 'comfortable' with being very very fast and there is familiarity with it, familiarity breeds contempt, and people who have contempt for something tend not to give it the healthy respect it deserves...

That is; I can speed over 200 kmh and enjoy it, but on some cars, if you speed over 100 kmh, it will make you feel like you are at mach 3 speed; so insecure and uncomfortable; therefore scary like it will get scattered so fast.

It's not like our car doesn't feel uncomfortable, I just do not feel secure in *any* car. That's just me. It's not scary as "Oooooh that's freaky" but more like "HOLY CRAP I'M GONNA TURN ROUND WITH THIS THING", with me.
