Speeding is involved in one out of three fatal car accidents. Speeding is the third leading factor which contributes to car accidents. Drivers speed for many reasons, including because they're in a hurry; they're not paying attention to their speed; they don't take speed limits seriously; and they don't think they'll get caught.
