Hopefully it is scaring you enough to remind you not to take the car lightly. In my early twenties I bought a turbo charged Mustang that handled so well that on a routine basis I would be going over 100 mph on twisty back roads on my way to work. Invariably a truck would pull out or I would come across something that would cause me to slam on the brakes and have to make a quick swerve to avoid an accident. My heart would start beating rapidly and rather than saying, "Holy sh@t!" and getting scared, I would say, "Wow!" and feel exhilarated. Within a couple of months I decided that if I wanted to see my mid twenties it would be safer to drive a four wheel drive truck and I got rid of the Mustang until such point that I was more mature.

Having a little fear is a good thing, it keeps us and others safe.
