And the judge should toss it because obeying the speed limit is more important.

It's not an accident that traffic accidents have been on the rise since they removed the national speed limit.

Where in the Constitution is the federal government permitted to establish traffic laws?

That is simply not true

See http://www-nrd.nhtsa.dot.gov/pdf/nrd-30/NCSA/Rpts/2003/Assess02.pdf#search='traffic%20accidents%201990%201991%201992'

Page 8 & 13 are the graphs that prove you wrong

Even though there are more drivers on the road today the number of people killed is less than it was in the past.

Speed doesn't kill, People driving at different speeds does.
