But, without everyone driving a hybrid that would turn off the gas engine at low speeds in traffic, the fuel savings in the cities wouldn't be as great. But for the stretches between cities, it would reduce consumption. However, it is those long stretches where high speeds make trips shorter.

I'm a firm believer if they were truly about safety, income, and mileage they can set photocops on highway stretches and photo all the offenders of speed limits.
I understand they have right turn stop activated cameras now, I don't see why they don't use speed sensitive cameras.
