In one-lane-only situations I will stay around the speed limit if someone is behind me. I wouldn't fault someone for going below the speed limit on a moped. That might be her only transportation. If she was on a motorcycle that is designed to travel at highway speeds, that's different.
That said, if I were her, I would be watching my side view mirrors and "cheating right" in anticipation of someone coming up behind and passing me.
Also, from a "drive the road ahead" POV, I think you have to anticipate an accident or a slow driving wide-load beyond the crest of almost every hill, so it's hard to fault her for not going 55.
Question: If you had been actively looking for slow-pokes, would you have been able to see her in advance, or was the topography (i.e. curves and forest and other visual interference) such that there was no way you could have seen her ahead of time?
