Driver's high

Short form of "the driver's highway."

You've probably heard this expression in the opening theme of Great Teacher Onizuka in which the whole sentece is:

"I'm in the coolest driver's high"

Some people translate that expresion like: "My adrenaline is at its max level right now" but in this case, the meaning is quite literal; it refers to the fact that the person is riding his vehicle on one of the coolest highways ever.

-"Do you like riding your bike at full speed?"
-"Yes, especially on this driver's high, man!"
