Do you mean pay 5K a year to be certified to drive at the speed you believe to be reasonable as opposed to a posted speed limit?
The only way that would work is if all limited access highways were widened to 3 lanes, the added lane being for the speed demons. On two lane highways, many people who are just going slightly faster than the car they are passing pass on the left. Add some drivers that know the speed limit doesn't apply to them to the pool of drivers that already speed, and you have a recipe for disaster, particularlly in a country where lane disipline is non existant.
