Explanation
If you are traveling on an expressway with a maximum speed limit of 70 mph, you should not drive below 50 mph unless otherwise posted. In Florida, the speed limit will never exceed 70 mph, and this rule generally applies to limited-access highways. Driving too slowly is also against the law, as it can block or delay traffic moving at normal, safe speeds. Always aim to drive with the flow of traffic while staying within the posted speed limits. On highways where the speed limit is 70 mph, the minimum speed limit is 50 mph.
