It will be pretty nasty if it catches up with you and hits you.

So what is safer, driving faster or driving slower?

You quite obviously have a vivid imagintion, have you considered writing a
novel or other work of fiction?
I used to drive an old beetle and the brakes would fade when braking
from 70mph at about 20mph which could be quite hairy unless you read the
road ahead, so I wouldn't imagine the above a work of fiction.
