How about this for an argument in court?

You: If you were in a bank, and a man with a gun came in, would you stop him
     before he shoots a teller?
Cop: Of course.
You: Then why don't you stop the speeder, if your reason is to protect
	 the rest of us from speeders?

Do these arguments ever work?
