Yes but at 120km/h you can control your car better than at 190 or 250
I can tell you that even on a borad "Autobahn" a speed of 200 km/h makes me feel insecure as a young and inexperienced driver. While at 140 I feel just fine. Of course you can kill somebody if you run him over at 30kmph but you're much less likely to.
