I'm in the slow lane out here.. Though the Trolley is slower.. it's for the tourists ..
Impractical to survey the drivers, but otherwise - let's do it. Any who are interested, try riding a familiar piece of road slow and then fast, and see what you think. Did it feel different? Was there any difference in your actions (beyond speed) or in drivers' actions? What sort of road and traffic?
