This movie Drive came out eons (months) ago. Perhaps you seent it  already or you don't care for car chase movies so it never made it on to  your radar.

the flicks that i liked in the order that i saw them...
  Loving Annabelle, dir Katherine Brooks 2005 USA 

in the tradition of lesbian schoolgirl films this well-acted and well produced movie didnt knock me off my feet but it did make me feel funny down there so i cant not recommend it. for the record the investigator really, really liked it.
