When I lived in Sardinia, there were some great descents on the north end of the island. I used km/hr on my computer and hit 100 a few times. On one road, I was hugging the yellow line in a blind hairpin when a car appeared in front of me doing the same. I leaned over further expecting to slide but didn't. It got my attention. I was a little more conservative after that.
I've seen bad crashes on descents, almost all have been the cyclist's fault, either overcooking a corner, or swerving to miss oncoming traffic.
