But you are well within your rights to tattle, too. So everyone seems to be doing their part.

With regard to this regulation you are right on the money. It needs to be changed and we can do our part by showing how obsolete it is.
In California they even had a rule for speed limits in the 1980s. If a certain percentage of drivers stayed above the speed limit and the number of accidents did not increase on a particular road then the city had to raise the speed limit and refund all the fines they dished out to motorists who went "too fast".
Unlike Europe, where a lot of speed limits seem specifically designed to maximize speeding ticket revenue...
