MIL driving

This is an awkward one. MIL is not the safest driver in my opinion. She drives so fast I feel nervous when I’m in the car with her. She has had a couple of accidents in the past 10 years due to her speed.
She wants to take dd and SIL’s ds on a 1.5 hr journey soon and I don’t feel comfortable with it. Not sure if it’s my anxiety or not.
SIL is fine with it. Dh is fine with it. Dd really wants to go. I just don’t want to look weird by saying something and I expect they’d take offence at me questioning it.
Shall I just ask dh to tell her to drive extra carefully or something?

I really doubt you'd even need to ask her to drive carefully. Regardless of how fast she normally drives, people take far more care when their children or grandchildren in the car and given how no one else is concerned id be inclined to think your anxiety is exaggerating the risk
