I agree with everything you’ve said. But, the sort of person who gets 12 points isn’t exactly the sort of person who you would expect to actually stop driving once they’ve got there. They’ve already been in court for speeding (or worse) at least twice, possibly 4 times. Maybe more if they were offered a speed awareness course the first time. If the goal is to stop them speeding then these devices might actually do it…

And if you get caught, you get jail time. What's the issue?

In NY, the limit is 11 points and being caught at 40mph above the speed limit will give you 11 points in 1 offense. The term super speeder tends to be used for these.

Not in court - most are fixed penalties. Yes, the devices might help, but I also think cars can be seized etc. I believe the UK and the EU already require speed limiters be installed on all new cars. https://www.parkers.co.uk/car-advice/speed-limiters-what-they-mean-for-you/ https://www.parkers.co.uk/car-advice/speed-limiters-what-the...
