Not in the US, btw, or large parts of the EURO network. On some sections, yes, but it's no where close to universal.
Now what most places DO have is equipment to automatically apply the brakes if the driver runs a red signal...but that's a very different "degree of difficulty" from actually monitoring the speed.
