I can speak only for myself, of course... but I just horrifically lost my wife in a car accident (including partial use of the left side of my body; we're hoping that's temporary), and I still love driving and racing. I don't like rain as much (someone lost control in the rain and hit us head on in a Truck vs our little Fiesta, you can see the result in the other topic if you want), but general driving is still a hobby of mine. Both for speed/pleasure/cruising, or just the meditative experience of connecting man/machine with the wind in your hair. That, and if the same thing happens (something completely out of my control causes me to be in a serious accident), I'll be with my wife. So I don't really care either way. I don't want anyone else to get hurt, though. I'm super careful in the rain, especially since I'm RWD.
