And that's exactly what the highway patrol does. It goes after those driving faster then the flow of traffic and those impeding the flow of traffic.

Exactly, police action should be limited to outliers (high or low).

If 90% of traffic is exceeding the speed limit, the problem isn't the people, it's the limit. If you set it at the 85%, you have 85% of traffic automatically following and the vast majority of the remaining 15% are within 5-7mph of the limit.
