When I was younger and got hypomanic, I loved to get in my car, get onto the hiway, and just fly. Windows open, radio blaring, passing cars. Just loved it.
Didn't see myself as a danger to anyone else on the road, as I was the greatest driver ever. Got my first speeding ticket at 17. Nowadays, I try to curb that drive (pun intended). Can't afford the speeding tickets, and kind of realize I'm no Mario Andretti these days and never was.
Other drivers are now safe on the roads (at least from me).
