I rarely drive at all in my daily routine, so my driving is largely limited to longer x-country trips thus I spend A LOT less time in cars than the average bear. Those long trips are really the only sort of trip that benefits from higher speeds but I plod along because it saves fuel and it saves money. I don't mind the slight time penalty as I plan my departure time and pace such that arriving on time is easily assured, even when I make stops along the way for fun.
I'm going to argue that those who are always driving- no matter the speed- are the ones that don't value their time because for whatever reason they arranged their lives around the notion of tearing all over the place.
