I think the "speed kills" message was a bit optimistic in its expectation that everyone would realise it was about impact speeds.

All road safety messages have to be limited in the words they use just to fit on signs and catch peoples eye.

Perhaps the more accurate "idiots kill" might be apposite but then again the pedants will point out they often don't, which is true as well :rolleyes:

It should really be one of the following:
Impatience kills
Inattention kills

With the 1000Km a week commute I do, i think the most appropriate slogan should simply be;

Dont be an A$$hole.

You might find they are the single group in the community responsible for most of the road carnage and rage, as well as incurring speeding tickets..
