I've been driving my car or riding my bike for 43 years. Never been booked because I don't speed. Sometimes through lack of concentration I might go a little it over but slow down when I realise this.
I guess if I was caught doing 3 or 4 over the limit I would fight it.
Reason being if the government wants to strictly enforce a speed limit then they must also give the motorist a means of determining the correct speed they are doing.
Speedo's on cars are more than likely up to 10% out of calibration. Police vehicles have their speedometer calibrated to be within 2 kph. The government ought to force car makers to calibrate all speedometers to be within 2% as well.
