He did. the moment that i finished that THOUGHT my spedometer went straight to 58mph and flinched no more]

Interesting. That could indicate some supernatural involvment- not necessarily any familiar concept of God, or funky, Quantum Mind over Matter, or just plain probability/coincidence. I favor the latter for what it may be worth to you.
Alright y'all its been funny watching you guys get all huffy. I wont pursue this further because the scope of this forum obviously stubbornly refuses to bend in this case, despite doing so in others. I expected as much. Still, some people wrote responses which proved revealing. I cannot add to what I said already, so I simply choose to highlight the situation.
Somebody calling themselves Kristen indicated that having some drive meant lack of freedom to which I respond: all action originates in energy. If one can understand and direct ones energies than freedom can still infiltrate into everyday experience. The classic choice that the Buddha made to become Boddhisvata was to relinquish nirvana that he might participate in the liberation of other Beings.
Keep it cool
