If the LEOs don't think slow drivers are an impediment on your country highway, then you're the one with a problem, Galane. The posted speed limit is a maximum, not a minimum.

You come on to the hypermiling forums with a chip on your shoulder blaming hypermilers for going slow. We don't make up 1% of the driving public. Your slow driving scapegoats in rural Idaho aren't hypermilers at all. They're farmers and old folks who aren't in a big rush to get themselves killed by driving like maniacs.
