Most of the ones I've been down are country lanes, which don't offer a good road surface and are often extremely bumpy. Most national speed limit roads excluding motorways and dual carridge ways are country lanes.
If you think you can drive along those sorts of roads safely, you're putting yourself and others at risk, which is where the problem lies.

then surly the answer is to train the incompetent drivers not punish the rest .

How do you plan on 'training' all of these people who drive recklessly? It's an age old problem, as is seen with alcohol at the moment. We can't just target the people breaking the rules, but punish everyone instead. Don't get me wrong, I don't think punishing everyone is a good idea, but I don't have any other answers.
