Speeding is not a "cause". It is a FACTOR. Exceeding the speed limit in itself will not directly cause an accident. (If it did, most of us would crash every day.) Drunk driving and distracted driving are also factors. An example of a "cause" would be turning left in front of an oncoming vehicle. And in that example, speeding (by the oncoming vehicle) could well be a factor. And if you add up all the factors that contribute to all of the accidents, the percentage will be far greater than 100 percent, because most accidents involve multiple factors.
Accident investigators don't consider just the proximate cause of a crash. They look at the entire chain of events that led to the crash and consequent injuries or deaths. For example, was the weather bad? Was the driver in a hurry to get to his destination? Was the sun in the driver's eyes? Were all the vehicle occupants buckled in? These could all be contributing factors.
