Well, there are others. I saw Carmina Burana on this thread (other than O Fortuna, there is another movement that's dangerous) and the William Tell Overture, but there are few others like The Battle on the Ice from Prokofiev's Alexander Nevsky and the overture to the Marriage of Figaro (Mozart) that could be just as dangerous. Even the last movement of Beethoven's Ninth when it gets rolling, can be pretty fast. Oh, and a good chunck of Carmen, specifically the scene in the bar from the second act.

For me, its Van Halen's "Panama"....usually find myself going 15 - 20 mph faster than I should when that's on...

That's about the ONLY Wagner piece that'd cause problems, I must say. I've seen Gotterdamurung (sp?) on video several times, and though the story is pretty cool, there is an awful lot of lonnnngggg slllowwwwwwww dialog. Hence the need for peppy themes!
Bluegrass and fast Celtic music is what gets me in trouble. Easy to speed up to the tempo of the songs...which isn't always good.

I highly recommend not listening to the Overture to Tristan and Isolde while driving depressed.

"Radar Love" like some others have mentioned. LedZep's "The Song Remains the Same" is usually good for about eighty. But none of them gets the foot on the old accelerator like Morrison singing "Mistuh Mo Jo Riiiisin'" as "LA Woman" starts to crank up...

Whatever you do, don't play RADAR Love.

"I Can't Drive 55" - Sammy Hagar

I also found myself listening to the "Ride of the Rohirrim " selection from the "Lord of the Rings" sound track while driving and visualizing smashing into a horde of orcs or lazy, tax-leeching Caltrans workers.

"Entry of the Guests". From Tannhauser. Easily the best Wagner in my collection.

For some reason, "Last Kiss" is the song most likely to be playing on the radio when I'm in the car.

"
Green Onions" by Booker T. and the M.G.s= best cruising song. Ever.

Too BAd! My last name is Wagner and whenever "Ride of the Valkyries" is on the radio, for example like this weekend being broadcast live from "The Met" I crank it and put the pedal to the metal...
