Wasn't trying to pass it off as my own, it's pretty clear I couldn't come up with that.  ____________________ Yamaha TDM 850 |

That sounds like someone came into IRC a few months ago when I was on my "Mark for Prime minister" campaign.
They took the words right out of my mouth!

I'd do it this way: - Reset all speed limits to the average safe speed that it is safe to travel at on a particular stretch of road, meaning straight bit of well lit, well surfaced motorway with big verges on either side would get something like a 120 limit and an older, unlit, windier motorway might get 80 something, and so on.
- Find hazardous stretches of road, anything from a hidden farm gate on a country road to a school backing on to a dual carrigeway and place signs 500m before and after them temporarily lowering the limit. Call these 'hazard zones'.
- Tear up all speed cameras everywhere and resite them all in these zones. Make their trip speed time sensitive, so you wouldn't be done for speeding past a closed school at 3am, etc. Hide them as much as possible and quadruple the fines.
- Use the money to pay for things like "seperation distance" cameras on motorways, and of course traffic cops - all to catch people driving badly, not just fast.
