However we were passed by people doing well over 80; and I'd even guess a few doing over 100.
Ok, but that is the first I've heard of that happening and I highly doubt that is the reason.

And I don't deny speed was the main factor in the crashes and a problem but the medians are there for that reason. The same reason medians on Deerfoot had to be put up. We shouldn't just say "meh, it's stupid big trucks and their feeling of invulnerability" The kid and elderly women who was killed weren't speeding or being stupid.
