The courts and police are not much of a deterrent.  I've been speeding
every day for the past 43 years, and get a speeding ticket about once every
2 years.  I take care of those tickets by going to traffic school, so no points
are lodged against my driving record.  I never speed in residential areas or 
business districts with heavy traffic.  I speed on highways where conditions
allow it.  Does that make me an unsafe driver?  I don't think so because
I've never run into anything or caused any accidents.
