@etorreborre I know for certain that driving slower does not save lives, not that I am interested in saving lives. It's a conflict.

@dibblego I don't know how you come up to this conclusion knowing how energy compounds with speed

@etorreborre by the way, it is rate of change of speed, not velocity.

@dibblego my physics is rusty but I was thinking about that: E_k = 1/2mv^2 - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinetic_energy …

@etorreborre Are you really going to suggest that slower correlates to less fatalities? I will helmet cam a ride at 10kph.

@dibblego if *everyone* drives slower, there's less energy involved, hence less risk of death: http://bit.ly/12yAD7p 

@etorreborre I am refusing to believe you believe that.

@dibblego if the overall distribution of speeds stay the same, it makes some kind of sense
