https://crashstats.nhtsa.dot.gov/Api/Public/ViewPublication/... seems to suggest that speed isn't the major cause of accidents; there are a ton of other human related ones, plus other car related ones. IMHO, humans shouldn't drive the cars, but whilst they do, their max possible speed doesn't seem to make a big difference ;)

No, it's so wrong that it is silly. That wasn't supposed to be the reason why.
Stop looking for cheap gotchas.

>do you also want to ban usain bolt from the sidewalk
When Usain Bolt can delete a family from existence with one wrong flick of the wrist, I'll support banning Usain Bolt from running in the sidewalk.
Alternatively, when Usain Bolts running in sidewalks are one of the leading worldwide causes of death.
And I'm pretty sure that if Usain Bolt were running at 30kph on a crowded sidewalk somebody would stop him, which is actually a pretty nice analogy to the obviously beneficial measure of placing a speed limiter on cars.
