Someone might weasel out of ticket/fine/jail whatever so we shouldn't bother?

That is the most shit excuse to not make laws.

I was passed by a pickup in a 100 zone... that guy had to be doing 120 at least. I guess since he wasn't caught we should just cancel all speed limit laws?

Come on... try not to be so pessimistic. It's not about saving every single person, it's about trying to statistically get things better for more people overall.

That's literally the opposite of what I said...

Again I'm not saying we don't need laws, but what we need is true transparency ALONGSIDE those laws from any entity wanting to enter the market. Chinese manufacturers want to sell to European markets? Awesome, they can, if they can provide full transparency of their hardware and software stack. Period.
