Explanation
Driving significantly slower than the flow of traffic can be hazardous because it disrupts the smooth flow of vehicles and increases the likelihood of accidents.

Additionally, slow driving can create traffic congestion, making it difficult for other vehicles to maintain a safe and consistent speed.
