Leaves lots of opportunity for "indirect taxation"...aka invitations to the "Policeman's Ball"...

In Ontario, where DG3 cruises, Hwy 401 was built in the '60s when we rode on bias-ply tires with drum brakes...to an 80 mph "engineering standard", with a 70 "limit". With today's advances, the limit is 62...enforced at 75+.

Revenue generation...
