If going the speed limit makes you significantly slower than everyone else on the road then the speed limit should be enforced better.
I agree with everything you say about designing roads to slow down traffic but the problem is that you can easily go 150 km/H on a road that is designed to be safe at 130 km/H. Even though it's unsafe it doesn't feel dangerous. You'll be fine most times, until that one time you're not.
But if getting a nasty ticket or even losing your license if you're being really irresponsible is a real possibility, speeding becomes a lot less attractive.
