Driving in Emergency 
Zen and Driving
In a majority of cases destiny will find a way to compensate for your extra fast driving. Like slow driver appearing just in front of you on two-lane highway, or traffic jam on divided highway, or series of red lights, or anything else for this matter. By the same token, it usually will find a way to compensate for unusual delays. This really looks like any other conservation law – whatever you gain in one place, has to be lost in another. So, there is no point in pushing it far over the limit, especially in emergency situation.

If your goal is to get through the traffic significantly faster than you normally do, you have to jump through the roof to achieve it. Really, I’m serious. Experience shows, that you can’t achieve this goal without running red lights, extremely risky passing, etc. And this is usually worsened by the fact, that your judgment is severely impaired in emergency situations. Is it worth it? I mean the reason that forced you to drive real fast, does it justify the risks you have to take? Usually no. More than 95% no, probably. So, I think the best thing would be to try to relax and drive as you normally do. If there is any real need for you to arrive faster from the Universe point of view, destiny will take care of this.
