Rather spurious parallels there Itpro. Axes and guns are absolutely fine in the appropriate environment (which doesn't include Brixton high street).

You're not going to argue that cars spontaneously crash killing their occupants and innocent bystanders when they reach a certain speed! I have, before I knew better, driven at entirely inappropriate speeds but never killed myself or anyone else. I suspect the same is true of 99.9% of us on here given the nature of the forum.

The point was that drivers need education to determine when speed is inappropriate as it is this inappropriateness that causes accidents, not the speed per se. 120mph on a dry clear motorway in a suitable car is arguably much less risky than 30mph outside a busy school at going-home time.

Speed limits can only ever be a crude determinant of appropriateness because they can't universally consider time of day, traffic volumes, weather and road conditions, vehicle ability, driver ability, etc.
