If they were driving at the legal speed limit, how were they impeding traffic? If anything they were impeding others from driving illegaly (speeding).

I made the mistake of driving home to NC from Tennessee via ATL. Never, ever again! To think I thought driving through the mountains of NC in the middle of the night with tractor trailors on my rear and no way of escaping them was bad.

Why is everyone in such a hurry all the time?

Nobody said the law was perfect. If you're doing 55 in the left lane of the Dan Ryan expressway in Chicago, you are nowhere near the requisite 80 miles an hour, and you can/will be pulled over for impeding traffic (as well you should be). Just because you're not breaking one law doesn't mean that you're not breaking another.

If the flow of traffic is faster than you are driving, regardless of whether or not you are driving the speed limit, then you are impeding traffic. The 55 MPH speed limit is bull. I will not abide by it.
