Explanation
Driving significantly slower than the flow of traffic can be dangerous and may increase the risk of a crash. Driving below the speed of surrounding vehicles is NOT safer - it can be just as hazardous as speeding. To maintain a safe driving environment, keep up with the flow of traffic when possible. If you must drive slower than other vehicles, stay in the right lane and allow faster-moving traffic to pass.
