And as proven by numerous studies, it's not the speed of traffic that's dangerous, but the difference in speed between the fastest and slowest drivers that causes most accidents.
Umm, no, distracted driving and speeding are the cause of most crashes. Unless you want to play with words and say that every accident is caused by a difference in speed between the vehicles that crash.

This law will also not only not reduce accidents and fatalities, but it will very likely increase them due to forced crowding of the roads and giving drivers something stupid to pay close attention to rather than the road.
So your argument is that people will crash more because they are trying to figure out how fast they are driving instead of watching the road? I'm not a big fan of lowering the speed, but I can say that without making stuff up.
