It isn’t like we are splitting the atom. There have only been a handful of fatal accidents on the lake the past 40 years, and less than a handful of “accidents” each year. Not enough to count and not enough to draw any conclusions. Speed is never an issue. I wish it was like the feckless ban on assault rifles which did nothing. Lots of good data on that. That’s why they reversed it. Unfortunately, speeding on the lake never has been and never will be a safety issue.
