I'm Sam, live in Kent, I'm 30 and have been driving since 17. I'm slightly obsessed with cars but thankfully I've also developed an increasing interest in improving my driving. I suppose this has arisen through my dissatisfaction with the way some speed limits are enforced (yes I'm one of those) but the more I think about my driving the slower I tend to go...
That odd, it doesn't seem to work like that with me.
Seriously though, what you may find is that as you think about things more you'll be slower in some situations and quicker in others. The important thing is to know how much speed is sensible in each situation, and then drive accordingly. I think quite a few of us here work on the basis that speed limits are generally not a good guide to the choice of an appropriate speed, so we use our own judgement either way, up or down, always trying to maintain safety but taking a bit of freedom as well.

I'm thinking about joining the IAM although time constraints make this difficult currently.
OK that might be very good for you, but before finally deciding it might be worth considering other options. Plenty of people here can offer suggestions as to alternatives, depending on your general philosophy and approach to driving. The right choice here is important, and to get the best out of it you ought to seek tuition that suits you.

That's really nice to hear. Enjoy yourself Sam, but take care.
