When I get a ticket for going 41 in a 30, I'm pretty annoyed. That doesn't have anything to do with public safety. It's just a cynical money grab, and that harms the relationship between the police and the public.

There's a reason the speed limit is 30 k/h in Playground/school zones. There are studies that show the seriousness of injuries are greatly reduced at those speeds. The same can't be said for 41 k/h. So yes, you should be fined for going 41 in a playground/school zone.
