Speed is a "contributing factor" to the RESULTS of the crash(how much
damage),not necessarily the CAUSE of the crash.
I believe that more often,other things CAUSE the crashes,far more often
than just excessive speed.Like improper lane changes(not LOOKING before
changing lanes!),running red lights,failure to yield,equipment
failures(tires),for a few examples.
Not paying attention to driving is an increasing cause of many
accidents,IMO.
