Great Idea
You have picked up on the #1 reason why the speed limit will pass. Politicians will vote for it to cover themselves. If there is a death in the next few years involving speed it will get major coverage. Nobody wants to be trying to justify why they voted against a speed limit under those conditions.
The safest thing, in more ways than one, is for them to vote in favor of the limit.
Barrett will also get the heat big time if there is a speed related death.
