Too slow is very subjective. 65 in a 65 in AZ is about 15mph too slow for many.

[ogerwon]

that's why there's a "slow lane"... 45 mph was always the minimum speed on freeways in the U.S. slow cars simply travel in the far-right lane. but if the vehicle can't safely do at least 55 it should probably be on the back roads. however, many commercial and semi-trucks are governed to 55 or 60... they muddle along in the right lane, and everyone knows to give them room. cars are no different.

[LUNITICWILL]

don't have you're goddamn brights on and I'll go faster. keep them on and I will drive super slow.

[MudEDuck]

How about don't pass on the right?

[Rugerman]

I drive five over but what pisses me off is I’m passing people on the highway yet people ride my ass expecting me to go 15 above speed limit

[PhillipDreiling]

And yet safety advocates want trucks mandated to drive less than speed limit.

[tb]

BUT that doesn’t mean be a total jerk to people driving at or five below the speed limit or try and speed to pass them. Speeding is probably more dangerous but because people do it so often before something bad happens they think it’s fine

[DanH-uf]

Driving too slow on freeways will cause accidents.

[devilsoffspring]

If you want to drive below the limit on a clear day, stick to the right lane. Problem solved.

What I hate most is when I'm doing 65 in a 60 in the right-hand lane, and there's plenty of open space in the middle and left lanes, and someone chooses to continue tailgating me for several miles rather than moving around to pass me. Even if you're taking the next exit, you don't need to be riding my ass; even worse when we pass an exit or two and I end up exiting with them still riding my ass as I'm signaling to exit. I try very hard not to brake until I'm actually in the exit lane, but some of the exits are hairpin turns with suggested speeds of 25; you can't do 60 through that turn, and there isn't always a lot of slowing distance in the exit lane before the turn.

The minimum speed limit for a 70 MPH highway is 40 MPH

[screamineagle]

This all depends on how many lanes and which lane he is in. On a 3 lane highway the right lane is for slower moving vehicles. The center lane is for the normal flowing traffic moving at the limit. The left lane is suppose to be for passing slower vehicles that are in the middle lane.
If your in the far left lane and going 5-10 below the limit? Yes you are TAH.

[mikeperonteau]

Never pass on the right. The right is where the slow vehicles are supposed to be. If you pass on the right you are wrong.

[RexAurum]

If the speed limit is 70 it’s MUCH much worse to go 80 than 60.

[geobooo]

you dont have to go the speed limit but if you are over the speed limit you are wearing your pants

[reidcacaro]

Yes if you are on the highway in the left lane

[fictitiousnightmares]

Perhaps people should learn to follow the law and drive the speed limit or at minimum within 10 mph of the speed limit instead of blaming everyone else on the road that is following the law and not endangering others lives because they aren't selfish entitled people.

[UnholiestJedi]

Full of shit.
Passing on the right is also ticketable. Someone passing on the right and getting in an accident, that's still their fault.
The limit is the limit, aka the max, not the recommended speed.
