I suppose, pedantically, the change in speed IS the accident.
Studies of motor vehicle collisions take into account many factors , but the bottom line is - if everyone does the same speed, whether it be 15 kmh or 150 kmh , collision stats go way down.

Some smaller factors that affect that conclusion would be snow , following to close , and not having enough distance to stop , etc.
