I've had the odd situation where I have had to "accelerate out of danger". One I remember was a lorry (illegally) pulling out into lane 2 on a French motorway (most are only 2 lanes) despite me being in the space he wanted at the time, and too far forward alongside him for braking to be the better idea. I was certainly glad on that day to be in an Aston Martin with the power to push it to 190 mph than my diesel Focus with fuck all.
