Discussion
1.Do you have a similar expression in your language?
Yes, I think that in my language Japanese, we have some similar expressions. However, I don't have ideas what the most similar one is. I feel it is a bit different. For example, diligent application or friendly competition (sessatakuma) means that they improved themselves through friendly rivalry.
Live this day as if it were your last (itiniti isyou) means that it is better for you to spend this day thinking that it'll be your last day. You will make this day the best.
2.What is the good point of living a life in the fast lane? What is the bad point?
The good point of living a life in the fast lane is that their life is a very active. They like exciting experience like a party or finding their next big thrill
The bad thing is, it's a selfish way to live. They might drink a lot of alcohol or use other drugs. They don't think about how their lifestyle may affect them or how it may affect others.

No, I don't. I don't have a car now. However, if this driving is part of my life, then my answer is yes. Now, my life is full of movement, excitement and action. I am not living in rich. Though I don't have enough money, I still enjoy working, studying and also love.
