Well, that's basically the law in Germany today. I still think a speed limit would make sense. I'm all for less regulation. There are thousands of totally senseless rules of the "nanny state". But a speed limit would at least make some kind of sense. It would increase security, save energy and probably even improve the traffic flow.
