Driving significantly below the speed of surrounding traffic can be as dangerous as speeding. According to the Solomon Curve, any deviation from average traffic speed raises accident risk. ‼️
Slow driving creates confusion, forcing sudden braking or abrupt lane changes. It also encourages impatient drivers to attempt risky overtakes, particularly on highways.
Moreover, it disrupts overall traffic flow, leading to congestion and a higher chance of collisions. Ultimately, overly slow driving endangers not only the driver but everyone else on the road.
