No, in other words, what you "knew" was shown to be inaccurate with just a few seconds of research. How you came to the conclusion you have now reached is a subject that I'm not at all interested in exploring.
I said there was no research that I knew of. I wasn't aware of it, is that a crime? Now that I've read up more on it, my opinion is, if anything, strengthened. If people chose to follow the rules of the road, i.e. the speed limit, the road would be a safer place. The very "research" you did proves my point. That people should simply follow the speed limit.
Given that "flow of traffic" is not a good enough excuse to get out of a speeding ticket, and given that speed limits are posted for a reason and enforced by law, it's logical and safe to do the speed limit. The people who are weaving in and out of traffic, i.e. VARIANCE, are the ones causing the issue. If everyone followed the posted speed limits within a +/-5MPH range, the road would be safer. Period.
If you're frightened of dying, and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away. But if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the Earth.
