Speed is not the cause of any of these accidents. Bad driving is the cause of the accidents. Not wearing a seat belt is the cause of death. In many places in Europe their highways are de-restricted, with no formal speed limit, but despite this, have far lower rates of fatal accidents. Drivers pay attention, and are belted in.

Money for you and your boss to travel around the world first class, eating in the finest restaurants, staying in the finest hotels, but you can't even buy a fire truck for your own constituency? Who keeps voting these people in?
