Who said I live in a city?

So 20mph is not something you experience daily? It would be more altruistic of you to empathise with those who do.

Deliberately driving slower just to teach others a lesson is a problem. It’s also classed as dangerous driving and you’re failing to keep up the flow of traffic.

I know this to be true as my elderly mother got pulled over by the police a few years back for doing just under 20 on a 30 road (she never likes going over 30). The cop gave her ‘advice’ about her driving, warned she was committing an offence with the speed of her driving but would use his discretion on that occasion based on her agreeing to not drive in that manner again.

She’s barely been out on the road since but that’s a different story. But no, you go teach people a lesson, cause a possible injury/death from road rage and feel smug about yourself for doing your bit to improve road safety. Well done you.

Well, you can tell mum she's ok to drive now; everyone else has to drive at her preferred speed, including me.
