On the speed side they should follow the same methodology. Identify locations with high speed related collisions, put in cameras and announce it, review accident statistics. There also should be a radius at speed changes where they cannot place cameras.

They already do that, the cameras are called "speed on green/red light". In those areas, they do work to slow down traffic:
