HE is not a dictator. So if some jerk wants to go way over the speed limit, that is between him and the law, NOT a self appointed speed monitor who is violating the law himself.
So, in your example, a police officer on the scene should give a ticket to the guy going the speed limit and let the speeding jerk get away?
