I can't tell you if it is safe without knowing what causing the problem. If it only seems to shudder at a high rate of speed, you may want to start by checking the fuel pump pressure to confirm it is getting enough fuel. After that, start checking for vacuum leaks, check for a tune up... My first guess would be the fuel system.
