    I've noticed many times before that after a porn binge. You are much more of an aggressive driver and can't concentrate as much. It's like you are just in a constant rush and just want to get to where you are going. Honestly I sometimes drive about 20km over the speed limit after relapsing. One time I almost hit two cyclists, a little girl and her mum. Imagine all the lives I would have ruined if that happened. I was so exhausted after a relapse and had just finished work. I just wanted to get home. I usually always look over my shoulder and in my mirror, but at this particular time, I just wasn't concentrating. We drive on the left, so the cyclists were on my left, I moved over to turn left and cut right In front of the little girl. It was so close, that the mother screamed out in horror. It is just very hard to concentrate after relapsing and it drains your energy and makes you super lethargic and tired, but people drive like this all the time. Think about how many accidents their are. I wonder how many of them are caused by side effects from fapping and porn, we may never know. I've noticed that while on nofap, driving is fun and very relaxing. I don't speed as much. I'm aware of all my surroundings and I'm always checking my blind spots.

    Pmo affects ADHD highly. All that dopamine rush makes you so high that you cant even focus. Theres been times I've switched lanes directly after putting on my blinker and my mind forgets the middle step of actually checking to see if I can even get over. This is obviously a huge problem because many times I could have side swiped someone and created an accident. Every time I always remember I didnt check mirror and made a mistake it scares the hell out of me and start saying how lucky I am to not have hit anyone. And yes I bet a lot of carelessness and accidents have to do with high dopamine levels from porn use, since levels stay elevated for many hours and even days sometimes after last usage. It's crazy. PMO affects people behind the wheel!
