Kevlar has saved me at 40mph twice, but like motofool said it can burn you. All I got was a light scuff on the knee of the pants, but underneath was a nasty "burn" and friction rub that started bleeding. I can deal with that since it was just a rub burn, but if it had been a blunt force impact or a piercing object I would have been done for.
