I should have been more specific and stated that, aside from technical difficulties, there are no reasons...

If we're talking from a pure point of principal (if it could be done, should it), I'd still say no. Look at drink driving as the perfect example. Through education and rigid enforcement of the laws, the majority now find drink driving morally abhorant. The same should be applied to speeding.

Ignore the argument regarding what the actual limits should be. The arguments regarding any type of speed camera become redundant as soon as someone accepts the need for some sort of speed limit (be it variable, per driver etc). I'm surprised that QOT would argue against the rigid enforcement of the law considering his position on enforcing the MSA rules (kerbs for instance). It really does boil down to people not liking getting caught. You will hear very few here argue the efficacy of speed limits in general; most argue against the means of enforcement. You hear even fewer suggest workable alternatives.
