speed fatigue

When you exit the highway and accidentally go 15 over the speed limit on a two lane road because you're used to going highway speeds

I got pulled over last night for doing 55 in a 35. That speed fatigue will get you every time.

speed of science

When you don't have time to properly vet or test your products before unleashing them to the world, but in an act of hubris and perhaps a dash of malice, you release it on the world and hope for the best. Bonus points if you can get governments to mandate it.

We had to move at the speed of science to really understand what was taking place in the market. And from that point of view we had to do everything at risk. I think Dr Pfizer chief executive Albert Bourla, even though he’s not here, would turn around and say to you himself, ‘If not us then who?

speed goggles

When you're opinion of a member of the opposite sex changes based on how fast he/she is. Very common among top cross-country runners, track athletes, swimmers, etc. Although throwers and jumpers are not basing on speed, but rather throwing or jumping ability, the term "speed goggles" is still applied.

Guy 1- "Man that girl is fine."
Guy 2- "She's decent but you're rockin your speed goggles a little too much"
