Precipitancy creates prodigality. (Haste makes waste)

First figure out the more familiar version of this proverb(i.e. how is it usually said)
Describe an experience where you found this proverb to be true. Has being in a hurry ever paid off? Has it made matters worse?
—The more familiar version of this proverb “Precipitancy creates prodigality” would be Haste makes waste. An experience where I found this proverb to be true was just in everyday life. I find that anytime someone makes haste out of something that doesn’t matter or is just making trouble, then it will turn into waste, something that you wish you never did or something that is just maybe hurt someone in any kind of way. This would also refer to the fact that once when I was running a little late to cross country practice I started to go over the speed limit not thinking it would be a problem but just then a police officer came from nowhere and caught my speed and pulled me over for a rather pricy ticket. No I cannot say that being in a hurry pays off because it just gets you into a bad mood or in trouble somehow, or you just put someone else at a risk or in danger. Yes, haste makes waste can make matters worse because it just doesn’t help in anyway.
