As
Dave R points out, speeds over 45 will produce rooster tails (plus a huge spray plume) that will identify it as excessive to the MPs.
Any news event on the lake will collect as many as seven MPs at one time: evasion is futile.

From
Wikipedia:
"...Basic civil liberties include freedom of association, freedom of assembly, freedom of religion, and freedom of speech. There are also the rights to due process, to a fair trial and to privacy..."
Form a line at the rear to get that essential civil liberty for
