Explanation
Driving slower than the traffic flow can be just as dangerous as speeding and can make a collision more likely to happen. When you drive slower than the speed of the other vehicles on the road, you can interfere with the traffic flow and create a dangerous situation. Additionally, driving too slow can cause vehicles to bunch up behind you and make them more likely to take risks to pass you.
