I don't understand people who speed casually or those who accelerate so that their passengers feel the inertia at all. Me, I've honestly never driven over the limit (don't own a car myself though).

Wow. Powerful stuff.

Much like guns, speeding doesn't kill people. Driving a vehicle beyond it's limits -or your own- kills people. If there's a decent probability your vehicle will drift up and fold itself around a utility pole, you're going a bit too quick.

The autobahn has less deaths per square mile/per capita than the US highway system. Speed is less the cause of accidents than that of driver error (running a light, changing lanes when someone is there, ect). Speed doesn't help in those cases, but it wasn't the cause. Not to say speed limits are useless, in key areas they can be shown to be helpful. However in some studies when speed limits and road signs are removed completely, accidents decrease. Some argue because you have to be more aware when you drive in a system that is more chaotic. More stressful, but more safe was the result of the study (this test was on side streets not on highways). Anyway, this is just a propaganda piece with anecdotal evidence to make some sort of claim that speed = death, which has been shown not to be the case in many ACTUAL studies. While debatable, this surely doesn't add to that debate in any meaningful way.
