Good. People have been driving too fast for too long. Too many people die in car crashes. Speed is often the factor that determines whether you (or the pedestrian they're hitting) lives or dies. Drivers have had plenty of time to moderate their own behaviour, but they haven't. If they can't behave, they should be forced to behave.
