It’s more so psychology. There’s a few videos floating around YouTube by creators like Not Just Bikes that explain the concept, but in short most people are going to drive a speed that is comfortable for them, and that is dependent on the size and design of the road, which means the best way to make people obey the speed limit is to use narrower roads and the best way to make people break it is to design wider straighter roads.
This is what they mean by the speed “speed limit being too low for the street”. The speed limit may be an amount but the speed suggested by the street design itself pushes people to go faster

Last I heard Seebeck generators weren’t that good/practical for large scale use; did things change?
