Chris, so how do you apply all that theory to these three facts:

1: The girl (victim) was in the middle of the road, where cars are meant to be;

2: The speed limit IS already 30Mph and the vehicle was travelling at (as you say) over three times the limit;

3: The car was driven by a person employed and trained to regularly drive over the posted speed limits in the pursuit of his job?

Dan



PS. As you stated, you haven't read the whole thread so we'll give you the benefit of the doubt. It has never been refuted that the higher the speed the lower the SURVIVABILITY of an accident. What some of us here are doing is attempt to shift the focus of attention from what reduces the outcome of the accident to WHAT CAUSED THE ACCIDENT IN THE FIRST PLACE.
We would rather that we reduce the number of accidents (and that of the victims with it)than simply deal with their unwanted outcomes.
Wouldn't you agree that to be a better alternative?
