dont be so precious

i spotted the "collition" error earlier but made nothing of it. it was only the "play on words" comment that sparked me to come up with that bit of wit.

its not soley to do with speed anyway. kinetic energy relies on mass also. to redistribute the energy is a complex process and depends on many other factors: geometry, material properties, elastic and plastic deformation mechanisms are just a few.

increasing the ke in a collision is likely to result in higher levels of injury but it is not certain. there are thresholds where certain structures will or wont deform. no one collision is the same.


"speed kills" is a dangerous concept.

"dangerous/careless driving kills" would be a much better message.

assuming it is safe to do 70 on an unlit dual carriageway in thick fog is usually far worse than doing 59 in a 50 zone in ideal conditions.

"bit in so many other ways you are wrong."

feel free to list
