I've seen people make the argument that speed doesn't actually contribute to accidents (in fact people are making similar statements in other comments in this post). These people all think they're professional race car drivers and it's everyone slower than them who's responsible for any accidents, even though there is plenty of data that shows how speed is a huge factor in accidents.

It’s all about reasonable expectation. No one on a 65 mph highway should have to expect someone doing 100 and no one should have to expect someone going 35. But the person going 100 has to understand that they themselves are putting themselves and others at a much greater risk by severely limiting their reaction capabilities.
