This sounds like a money-making opportunity. If 85% of drivers insist on breaking the law, they should pay. We can then use that money to redesign the road for more traffic calming.
That soudns great. But why spend that money on traffic calming? Let’s just use that money to install additional speed-camera’s and build more roads that encourage more speeding. Revenue generation must be priority number one for every government!
Drivers going 30mph in a 20mph haven’t done anything wrong, the road designers have failed by making unreasonable speed limits, shown by the fact that it is ignored by 85% of people

In the UK that road could very well have existed long, long before the concept of a motor car. It’s hard to retro fit those kinds of roads.
