It still puts speeding at no three.
It's so easy to change statistics by changing one word to suit a particular viewpoint.

That's true, it's also easy to selectively read what was written and come to your own conclusion...
Lets leave unrestrained as the cause at 27.3% and take the other two figures I posted - 25.5% speed and 23.5% alcohol (these are in the QLD doc). That elevates speed to second but its STILL a major cause.
Then look at the 2015 NSW figures I posted for further proof that speed is a major cause of accidents. I'm sure if you looked at other states, a similar story would be told...
