You seem to have picked up figures from another year which are slightly higher than current ones, but no matter.

Let's agree that about 17% were going too fast for the conditions and focus 17% of our effort on them.
We have 21% who weren't paying attention (didn't look properly). Lets spend 21% of our effort on causes of inattention - mobile phones, reading maps, sat navs, falling asleep etc

12% failed or judgement of path -what about 12% on more rigorous tests.

8% on drink driving. etc etc
You get the picture.

Clearly it won't (and couldn't) be exact.

And it might be instructive to find out why drivers who speed seem to have fewer accidents than those that don't ... so perhaps we should investigate why... Perhaps if we analysed the speed stats and found out how many guilty of "excess speed" were actually going above the posted limit....

You don't seriously believe that road safety effort is actually proportioned in anything like those proportions do you? I know local authorities spending the vast majority of their budgets on speed cameras alone.

If I were a cynic (given my personal experience) I might just believe that quite a lot of "excess speeders" were going below the posted limit, and at quite moderate speeds by NORMAL standards - but inappropriate for the circumstances snow/ice/ type of vehicle etc. Which fixed speed limits simply do not address.
