You realize that europe even with super highways have lower fatality rates? Mainly because of better driver training,, and I've been through training. Sure you can't do a lot to avoid stuff at higher speeds, but it's not like there is no road where these speeds are legal. And these people that drive on these roads are pretty safe... If roads were really about being safe, speed limits would be 30mph or less everywhere and it would take weeks to get across the country,,, though safety isn't always why speed limits are made or enforced.
That whole hitting a child or another car thing just shows your mindset;

Europes autobahns have fencing around many of the speedlimit-less parts of the road to prevent this. I was not talking about a car with no lights on, you chose to read what I wrote with your bias against cops. What if you crested a hill and there was a car disabled in your lane a couple hundred feet up the road? Take your pick on what can happen, either way, going 20mph over the speed limit drastically decreases your chances of being able to do something about it.
You are how old now? With how many years of driving experaince? And underwent what training?
Your whole 30mph argument is BS and you know it, I wont even bother addressing it.
