To be fair, road usage does matter.

If there is construction you will be fined more. If students traveling to school, the speed limit is lowered.

Point being that not all "speeding" is the same.

Obviously yes, if you have a higher probability of endangering someone (ie, school kids, construction sites), the punishment will be worse.
