As humans we as a rule generaly can process things as fast as one can run. This is derived from an evolutionary standpoint. Over the course of "our" history we have only moved as fast as our bodies or more recently horses and then cars now planes and spaceshuttles have allowed. As the speed of our scientific advancement continues to pick up speed our mental capability fails to keep up....or so they say. Anyway point is mentally we fail to process our surroundings as humans as fast as is required by our modes of transportation[/QB]
OK, and just how do racecar drivers avoid pile-ups at high speed? And don't day the spotters, the drivers don't close their eyes and steer blindly.
Interesting thoughts, but I don't buy it. Hell, I process, and remember, MORE detail at speed than poking along. Maybe I pay more attention at 90 than 45, but I, and most us here, can process plenty of info at speed.
