Dive

Hi everyone;

I can't figure out the meaning of the underlined part:

I drink and drive
Feel so alive
I'll never take that dive
Feel so alive
I'm doin' ninety-five [...]


Does it refer to some kind of manoeuver? And while I'm at it, "doin' ninety-five" simply means "going ninety-five miles per hour", right?

Here are the full lyrics:

Thanks in advance.
