Limits are there for a reason.

Yeah. You do get areas where the limit seems redundant, but I figure it must be there for a reason. You are right about residential areas, there's no excuse for speeding there. To save yourself 5 minutes, it's not worth the risk of taking a life - something like that would wreck a family, as well as your own life.
TBH I'd like to see average speed cameras in every residential area to slow the pillocks you see speeding around. You only see them on main roads, I guess as they catch more people so they "earn" more, yet probably save less lives.

I think the sensible thing to do is introduce more traffic police, but then again, that doesn't raise revenue does it?

You guys may have speed cameras but at least your top speed limit is realistic. Here in Japan it's fu*king retarded how slow it is. I was on a 4 lane road the other week doing 68kmph (42MPH) and got done for speeding. WTF! The limit was 50kmph which is a pathetic 31MPH. Normally I'm doing 80kmph (50MPH) to 100kmph (60MPH) on there which still isn't that fast considering the size of the road. Anyway, 1 point on my license and a 60 pounds fine. TWATS!
