I could not respectfully disagree with you more. If you check USA vehicular accident statistics you will find that excess speed along with mental impairment (lack of attention/judgement) ARE the primary causes of most accidents. They are also the major factors in the severity of injury/property damage. Weather conditions are a close third. Driving too fast in adverse weather conditions, well, . . . . BINGO!

You have made a giant leap from speed to EXCESS speed. Of course, excess speed is bad but that has nothing at all to do with driving at the speed limit.
