This was directed at the breathalyzer thing, so I can't tell your stance on speeding cameras. But the obvious difference between this and transfats/etc is that the government is taking away your ability to do previously lawful things. Speeding was never previously lawful.

Slavery was previously lawful.

Very wise on your part. At least you recognize that you're digging yourself a hole.

The point is that a particular item's "previously lawful" status is irrelevant in a moral evaluation.
