Selfish, irresponsible scum. Your "reason" for driving is just an excuse: no-one truly needs to drive, as each and every car journey could easily be completed through cycling and public transport instead. Scumbags like you just choose to drive because you're lazy, and you couldn't care less about the damage you're inflicting on society through the carnage, pollution and congestion that you cause.

So, since you don't have the decency to stop driving, we must use laws that are ostensibly there for safety reasons to punish you for it. The speed limit is probably the most effective such tool: since all drivers speed, dragging drivers into court for every single speeding infraction is a great way of punishing each and every motorist for driving. Never mind if the driver was doing a safe speed: there are more important things at stake than saving people's lives. Bullying drivers out of their cars *must* be the number one priority, and I'm delighted that the authorities have risen to that challenge so well.
