If people were prosecuted not for speeding, but for HAVING ACCIDENTS. the

Not really. There is no direct correlation between vehicle speed (within
broad limits), and accidents.


So are you saying if every vehicle was compelled to and drove at say

Definitley.

As I said earlier, horse drawn transport shows that to be the case.
