Yeah, it's been done. Other fast S14s over here in the UK run 2JZs or supercharged Chevy small block V8s.
I checked their website, just for you. They don't sell dash cams.
If you're approaching a 70mph car at 150mph and try to brake down to their speed, you'll gain on them by 63 metres or roughly 200 ft. From two seconds before passing them until you have passed them, you are no longer able to brake to avoid them if you need to. Even two seconds out, you barely have time to swerve. If…
"A minivan. The things you all here on Jalopnik loathe. Also, a non-American minivan. You all like having something represent the home country that was built elsewhere? How utterly embarrasing."
Or at least make the link work when you click on it instead of hitting the front page of io9.
You're the problem.
@jpool: I can say with confidence that playing sim games like Gran Turismo and Forza have made me a better, more dangerous driver. I've gotten out of hairy skidding situations with instinctual and timely applications of countersteer, which I create with unsurprising regularity in my RWD, TC- and ESC-less '90s sports…
@Greek: That driver may have been unconscious after the initial impact.

@jedchev: Looks like Jalopnik broke the URL. It's [tinyurl.com]
@i ♥ Tofu: So, people who currently drive stupid *all* the time will still have to drive stupid *some* of the time?
@Skydog: Not much, as you'll have to join at the back.
@wjbean: Road train capable cars are ridiculously simple minded compared to actual autonomous-driving cars. The system's maybe two steps above cruise control.

@brahcon117: As possibly the most comfortable mass-production three-wheeled motorcycle ever built, it kinda did something right.
@Noodle-Works: Your risk of having an accident genuinely does go up if you travel at a lower speed than the bulk of traffic.
@ClintonD: They don't have full data for North Korea or Somalia, which admittedly is a bad sign in itself. Haiti is doing OK - it's 145th out of 169 tracked countries.
@Vietcrab: Zimbabwe.
