Yes, good video. Canada and the USA has this demonic granting of speed rights to drivers. They could put in automatic speed traps on all street, with a fine by mail of a small amount, say $10 = a nuisance, but as they pile up the constant nag by mail, with a forced full payment to renew the plate will have a coercive enduring affect. It is important to keep it small - with a caveat. You are allowed to go yo court. If you challenge in court = higher tier of fines + time wasted burden. After a few months most will comply. Now manned speed traps have huge fines, huge police/court $$ burden. Cops tied up at speed traps prevent no crime, just fine a few people/day as the ticketing process at the street level is very slow. Automatic radar speed traps are fast. People hate them because they also have huge fines = lobby politicians a lot. The small nominal fine will get compliance without the same amount of lobbying and other pushback,
