Because if your car's top speed was 70mph, it would be going absolutely flat-out on the motorway. Unfortunately this would be very inefficient. Engines work most comfortably when they're in the middle of their range, not when they're going as fast as they possibly can. If 70mph were the top speed possible, then you'd waste a load of fuel and hurt your engine.
Think about it - athletes can run at 36kph over 100 metres, but they can't keep that speed up for a marathon. Instead they have to run at half the speed or less. Similar principle for engines!

Unfortunately the "few" lifes robbed by speeding accidents are no match to other "public" interests. Your idea would be a little catastrophe for the car industry. Nobody would buy the expensive fast cars anymore. And speeding tickets are income for the govt, to cover the costs of our infrastructure.
I'm not saying it's good or bad, but it's one of the cases where the end (money/economic cycle) outweights the cost (life).

We don't have to be doing dangerously high speeds to get damned " speeding " tickets over here. Just 37 in a 30 limit and you're up the spout.

i imagine Sri Vidya Rajgopalan has given the brilliant answer. despite the indisputable fact that the answer is particularly lengthy. enable me clarify you in short. Ram equipped a Bridge as a change of deliver because he idea, if contained in the warfare with Ravana better military of Varana is needed then it truly is going to be hardship-free to deliver reinforcement by ability of a Bridge Than to deliver deliver.

you have to be able to accelerate out of trouble.
you need more 'oomph' to keep at 70mph on a steep hill.
speed limit is different in other European countries
no speed limit on private land.

people driving slow cause the accidents, they potter along a perfectly good 60mph road at 30, causing tailbacks and fustration. Eventualy some1 will make a bad choice about overtaking points and crash

it would cripple the car industry, who would pay 100k plus for an aston martin that would only do 70 mph

its the motor industries that build the power machines, its the government that states the law, if you use the power to break the law you will be fined,your licence endorsed and get heavy insurance premium
