as an analogy- guns do not kill but crazy/angry people do...hence regulations.
speed can kill rather than injure.
Since Australians will always be inconsiderate drivers (generalising from observation) and will never/rarely learn to be better drivers nor polite drivers (i.e. drive in the appropriate lane, don't get angry at small mistakes made by others, etc.) then speed limits/regulations should be enforced.
As I said, i think the road toll would be higher if we had no speed limits or higher speed limits on our roads,
