I think driving into a tree is always dangerous, I don't know what speed you are going at has to do with it.
If your contention is that speed poses an unbearable risk or that speed limits save lives, well that's simply not true. I have found the following articles to support my position.

According to those Montana articles, when the speed limits were reintroduced, the highway fatality figures went up. I don't want to jump to conclusions, but speed limits might actually kill more people than they save.
