Right, but you're only "going too fast" if you're unable to stop, steer, or hit something due to the conditions.

To flag someone over and ticket them for speeding too fast for conditions when they're simply driving 40 in a 50 zone without proof that their actions will result in a collision.. I don't see how that can stick.
