Speeding is only an issue with traffic.

Holy fucking shit. What an incredibly deep and thoughtful statement. Thank you for blessing us with such an intuitive discovery.

So a catch-all speed limit isn't appropriate. If you're caught speeding on an empty road then it shouldn't be an offense.

Except wildlife exists. As does weather. As do pedestrians (yes, even in remote rural areas - I grew up in a rural area and I can't even count the number of times I was driving home and nearly hit some drunk campers out for a midnight stroll).

The entire point of a speed limit is to allow you sufficient time to react and stop your vehicle if something unexpected appears on the road ahead of you and I can't think of a single road where that would not be a pertinent concern.
