Ironically, the lower you are to the ground, the faster it feels - everyone should drive a sports car!
(conversely, I drive a motorcycle sometimes which puts my head at or just over roof height of most cars, it makes 80 km/h not feel as fast. Mind you, the added road overview also helps)
Anyway. Narrow / winding roads and speed bumps will definitely make you want to drive slower. We have 'cars are guests' roads inside cities too, which are roads designed and coloured like bike paths (= red asphalt).
But the opposite is also true; I got a speeding ticket once, the road was a 4 lane, separated directions asphalt ring road... but the speed limit was 50 km/h.
