I was just pointing out that it was a very, very bad example. There are situations when the danger of something - or someone - unexpected appearing on the road, and I agree to the fact that speed saves lives then. But there are other situations where the dangers just lie elsewhere. Speed limits do not only don't make sense there, but are also nearly exclusively controlled there where they don't make sense, and you justify it with a situation that is totally rare and unlikely.
And besides, how about the figures I presented? Ah, the old "ignore the facts if they contradict your opinion" rebutal .
