I'm definately going to be unpopular as I agree with ynot_. If people don't exceed the speed limit in the first place then they wouldn't get a ticket.

We've all been given a driving test and we are certified to drive safely at the legal limits. Unless they start giving tests for speeds way over the legal limit I don't think we can say that driving that fast is safe. It's not just for the other drivers, you may be endangering yourself by driving too fast. Some roads are bad enough even at the legal limits. I've seen people fly around corners and narrowly miss hitting a tree.

Not too keen on the idea of having a GPS linked car which knows the speed limits and won't let you exceed them normally though. I think they'll put something in to override it in an emergency but I doubt it would let you smack the panic button too many times.
