If regulations were lax, I think it would take about 3 warm hours in the summer before there were multiple incidents prompting public outcry for regulation.

It's a pretty reasonable balance right now - a bit like photo radar. It sucks if you get caught, but you probably should have been paying enough attention to see the obvious trap ahead.
