30% of 65 is about 22 which adds up to 88 which is what most people drive on the highway anyways so it makes sense for 50% of fatalities to be at that speed just needed to point that out sense it more likely it wasn't from speeding but yet carelessness I'm not trying to say to revoke the speed limit but that the high speed is prolly less of the problem and more of the big percentage of people who shouldn't have a license that causes these accidents
