no public road is safe to drive 130mph. You don't have time to react at 130mph to things that take place on public roads..

If a deer jumps out in front of you at 130mph there is a concrete divider on the right and a minivan coming the opposite direction , you are going to hit the minivan.

But even if you were going 10mph public roads are not safe because you are only capable of controlling 50% of the equation

Public roads are inherently unsafe because the public is on them.
