How about a $200/mo subscription plan where I get to go as fast as I want? I'd get on board with that. :D
Have you heard the steve jobs approach? Ethically dubious, but very effective. He just got a new car long enough he could avoid having a real plate so he could park illegally.
I don't think it was that deep -- I think Jobs was simply being a self-absorbed asshole in this case.
I've not read of him routinely buying new cars - quite the contrary. In this case I believe it was a simple disregard for the laws that only applied to "little people." He couldn't be bothered and didn't care.
Related: He routinely parked his Mercedes (the one without a license plate) in a reserved Handicapped parking space.

Don't see how that would be effective for speeding though.

I think the police departments get those from the federal government for free [1].
The ticket is only a small part of the actual costs.
And even worse, while this combination-punch can be irritating to middle- and upper-class folks, it can be financially devastating to someone living on the edge of sustainability.
But then, somebody has to pay for all those shiny new Police Intercept cruisers, SUVs, tactical body armor, new weapons & training, drones, robots, etc. etc. etc.
