This petition was submitted during the 2015-2017 parliament
Petition Make it illegal to do under the speed limit (when there's no traffic)
It's illegal to do over the speed limit because you could crash and/or kill someone BUT people doing under the speed limit can be just as bad.
More details
There have been lots of times when people have been doing the speed limit and had to brake hard because a learner or unconfident driver is doing half or under half the speed limit.
AND times when people do the national speed limit on country roads and they come around a corner to find someone doing 20mph. It's not safe.
It also causes traffic and delays on the roads
