These are not issues that I'd make a point of lying about in a court of law

So what you are basically saying is that you think that anyone who commits a speed related crime should get away with it lightly because murders, rapists and the goverment get away witih it in your view.

She wasn't put away for speeding, she was put away because she lied about it.

And lying in order to provide an alibi for a relative when they've been accused of speeding / leaving the scene of an accident / rape / etc
