Our taxi driver in the UK pointed out that many of the speed cameras average the vehicle speed between two points several miles apart. The speed limit also changes based on traffic. Literally nobody was speeding.

People do speed an awful lot on residential roads where there are never are any cameras, but yeah other than that it's not too bad.

What you do get is reckless driving though so, swings and roundabouts.
