Speed limits are fine where they are, and "nobody" is a code word meaning "you", isn't it? Look at me, look at me, you really mean "no one SHOULD obey them", right? A lot of people go the speed limit.
And yeesh, the idea is if someone who can't afford to get their car repaired gets in a wreck and the OTHER person is at fault, they can KNOW they will get their car repaired. Otherwise, if someone else is at fault, it's possible the person at fault ALSO can't afford to get it repaired, and you know as well as I that the person who's car just got wrecked CAN'T just wait until the person who's at fault gets the money together. They gotta drive.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
