I think you're right on the "civilized" front - I have actually looked down a few times and been surprised at how fast I was going. That has been the case with all of my BMWs though - especially when you're on the highway - I was on I-465 in Indy this weekend with my pops and he mentioned I might want to slow down - looked and I was doing close to 100.

This is why we needed HUD !
