Apparently, unknown to me at least, Volkswagen run a contest to find ideas that would make obeying the speed-limit fun. In January, a young man did just that and a year later his entry was put into practice in Stockholm, Sweden.
Every car that passes a speed camera gets snapped - those exceeding the limit get fined, those below it go into a draw to receive a monetary prize, one funded from the proceeds of those paying fines.
Maybe the reward should be to choose who to give 100 lashes to. Politician or other civil servant, including the police. I reckon that's something worth working towards.
