Remedies for Lead Foot Syndrome
summary
Claims concrete fixes: audiobooks distracted and cut speeding, push the seat back so pedal can't be floored, use cruise control and monitor miles per gallon, and try autonomous driving when available. Technology notes: radar and laser detectors, Waze warnings, rental cars often lack tracking (rented Mustang had no monitor). Behavior and policy: contest tickets (many get reduced to a fine), car modding like turbos correlates with risk, and cutting commute time (10–12 hours on the road weekly) actually eliminates the problem.
