I wouldn't drive it fast, i would baby it home or wherever you need to go. I've been driving with an 02 sensor code for a while, i would suggest not too because it could ruin your catalytic converter in minutes depending on the condition of it. I have no cat, got a high flow cat waiting to go on now but i need a new O2 sensor first so i don't ruin a brand new cat. I would suggest getting this done as soon as you can, but it's not gonna kil your motor.

Yeah you risk converter damage if you have one, if not it'll just lower your gas mileage and put out LOTS of pollution.

It'll drive like you have the choke stuck on.
