    get ready to have your insurance company jack your rates for going over 65mph

    The article didn't mention anything about information gathering for non-crash puposes, that I saw.

    Anyhow, if insurance rates do go up for speeders, they should correspondingly go down for those who abide the speed limit. Wouldn't that be the kind of rewards system we'd want to build into the process?
