Indeed. It is the same mindset that has resulted in governors on all commercial trucks in Canada. Since it isn't legal to speed, there is no reason to go faster than the top posted speed limit. How long until governors are installed on all vehicles and horsepower is limited, since you can't use it anyway? And then the next step is to install some sort of snitching device on all cars to let law enforcement know you are/have been speeding and thus deserve a ticket.
