That 99% of accidents are caused by stupid drivers or bad luck, not
failure to keep exactly to arbitrary speed limits?

No, 99% of accidents are caused because the driver was going too fast.
Luck is not required.

Cite please...

Cite a car accident where it would have happened if the car wasn't going
slower.

Oh dear. where it would have happendw if (subje) was (notdoing what it
was not doing)

More than 1%?


I make it by definition 100%.

i.e. dennis if the car was in fact not travelling any slower than it was
it can't affect the chances of having an accident.

*shakes head in despair*


Driving a car requires the driver to weigh up the risks of driving at a
particular speed to keep the chances of an accident low.
Some drivers are good at this and never have accidents.

Almost irrespective of speed.

Some are useless and have accidents.

Almost irrespective of speed.

Some don't consider the safety of anyone else at all, must be the shocks
they get from being an electrician.

or in your case, the mental health unit
