Quite so. But if someone was killed, chances are that that was not a

No, that does not follow at all. Many pedestrians are killed every
year by being struck by trains. Does that indicate to you that the
train was travelling at an unsafe speed?
What you say is true only if excessive speed *was a causal factor* in
the accident. Which I believe is not the case in the majority of
accidents (including those where the driver was exceeding the posted
speed limit).
