As usual, the focus is on symptoms and not causes.
The cause of most accidents is a failure by the driver ie crap driving.
This may take the form of inattention, poor judgement, temper, impatience, fatigue, inability, lack of skill, mild disability (eg elderly), incompetence, insufficient maintenance, ignorance and a miriad of other human failings.

Obviously, speed tends to increase potential injury - if your body hits something hard enough it will kill you.

Speed will always be the target because:
It is easily monitorable
It is visible
It can be made to pay for itself
It does result in small improvements in accident figures.

In order to improve the quality of anything long term you have to fix the process not the product.
Even then the fact that people will always make mistakes makes the end aim an impossible dream.
