The "Speed Kills" slogan has been used in various campaigns from a variety of organisations.

The latest information on the government's anti-speeding campaign is here:
http://www.thinkroadsafety.gov.uk/campaigns/slowdown/slo wdown.htm

There's a summary of the RoSPA campaigns here:

Current advice and policy documents from RoSPA, relating to speeding, can be found here:

Information about the dangers of speed can be found on the website of the charity, Brake, here:
http://www.brake.org.uk/index.php?p=10

The Slower Speeds Initiative might also be relevant:

If you're looking for contrary views, check the website of the Safe Speed campaign:

Hoping this helps,

You are not going to find much in the way of true facts of statistics because no real scientific study has ever been done of a correlation between safety and speed. The whole thing is a propoganda myth proliferated by the government as a way of justifying enormous amounts of fund-raising from motorists by treating very trivial misdemeanours as if they were serious crimes.
If you want to see some serious information about the releationship between speeding and accidents, try the Association of British Drivers website, www.abd.org.uk
