The ability of children's camps to safely access a crowded lake with their small craft is a personal concern of mine. During my summers as a camp director I had this problem.

Children's camps were never a central issue for speed limit supporters. They had little or nothing to do with the speed limit being enacted.

Speed limit opponents concentrated almost all their efforts on the safety issue. That is a main reason why they lost. For the general public, fair and equal access to a limited resource was #1.
