Images like that evoke feelings but you have to evaluate each on what would have occurred with other vehicles - even a bike hitting a child at speed is likely to be tragic.

No, because we're talking about the physical laws of nature here. A vehicle of that size hitting a child even at a low speed is going to impart much more force than a bike hitting a child at even high speeds. And that's before you get into the other physical design issues of modern cars pulling people under the vehicle in collisions.
