The correct solution here is road engineering so that the natural speed of the road is slower, rather than artificially slowing down traffic via a posted limit. This can be done by adding curves or thinning the road

Pennsylvania seems to have started pushing towards that in the middle of last year:

"On Aug. 5, the Superior Court of Pennsylvania held for the first time that Pennsylvania's Medical Marijuana Act (MMA) allows an employee to sue his or her employer for taking an adverse employment action based on the employee's status as a certified user of medical marijuana."[1]

"The resource footprint it takes to run Rezolus at this setting [At 10Hz sampling] is tiny, typically under 15% CPU"

It's a bit scary that they consider it OK to spend 15% CPU on all of their servers for telemetry!
