I live in an area with a lot of speed cameras on a 35mph road and get so many people going 30. It's makes me want to scream. So I'm not worried about people "crawling along" at 71- I'm worried about them going 50 on this big wide empty road. I'm also worried that I'll try to pass one of these slowpokes and speed up at just the wrong moment to set off the camera, when a cop wouldn't bat an eye at speeding up just to pass.
Why would you scream about someone going 30 when the max is 35?
Absolutely... unless ist inclement weather or heavy traffic.
all the ICC folks or any toll site with electronic tolls, need to do is just measure the distance between toll locations. when a car goes through th plaza it gets a time/date stamp. when it goes throgh the net one, another time date stamp. easy enough to calculate speed based on time/distance.
send them a speeding ticket with the bill for the toll.
Govts have always avoided this because it is a terrible idea. People will get rid of EZ pass or avoid the road altogether to avoid big brother watching. The road to hell is paved with good intentions. This idea would just end causing more traffic and waste all of the money the state poured into the ICC be dude many people will stop using it.
I never said it was a GOOD idea. I just said they could... everyone is already being tracked. credit cards, they know where you go, what you buy and where you spend your money, and It pretty much real time, maybe an hour delay. Cell phones. they know. Most vehicles now have some sort of GPS and/or black box, with many having onboard cellular that is separate from your phone.
If the feds wanted to track you. they can/will. unless you completely go old school, cash, off the grid, really old cars...even then, you have tags on your car, cameras are everywhere...

I can hit 170 on some of the longer straights right before Georgia Ave.
And this is why they are putting up speed cams.
I love 2 miles away from the ICC and have been woken up by speeding bikers at night.
Hahahahaha!!!!
I can pretty much guarantee I’m one of the ones who’ve woken you up
Hey, I’m sorry. It’s not personal. I legitimately apologize for that, and I hope you got back to sleep quickly afterwards. But bikes like mine are loud, and they’re REALLY loud at 155mph. I’m sorry I woke you up, but it’s not that big a deal.
I ride late at night because the road is basically deserted and if anything happened, it would only be ME that got hurt, and no one else. I’m not a sociopath. Just a guy who likes to go real fast on a sportbike in times/places where it’s safe to do so.
Nope, you’re a sociopath. You laugh about waking up hundreds of people. Some people have insomnia and cannot go back to sleep. You can go to a track instead.
Hundreds? Don’t short-change me, babe! I like to think I’ve woken thousands!
There’s nothing like a little 4am “WhhhhhhhhhhAAAAAAAAHHHHH-(upshift!)-BwwWhaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh” to get people stirring, hahahaha!

I feel the same way! I don’t speed because there are always cops pulling people over. I simply don’t risk it. But there are people who do drive like maniacs on the road and look out and don’t get pulled over. It won’t affect me personally, but in principal I don’t love the idea of speed cameras.

I do see some people going way too fast on the ICC. It's pretty ridiculous. I do think it needs a higher speed limit though. It would absolutely be safe to have a 70 speed limit given the volume of traffic that's normally there. I actually like 200 a lot, it sucks to pay tolls but it's the only road in the entire metro area that I can use cruise control on. It's a much more pleasant drive than other freeways.

Because they are either very important or "very important" and you need to get outta their way.

Also impound and require installation of one prior to release on any existing cars if you're repeatedly caught speeding or ever going 15mph over.
