Legally that’s literally what it is - a cop has the legal authority to pull you over for going 1 mph over the speed limit and give you a ticket for it. Obviously in the real world the enforcement of speed limits is way different from the actual letter of the law, but it’s really no trouble for me to just match my speed to the speed limit. It’s not like speeding actually saves you that much time.
No, I’m pointing out how seem to think going below the limit is also a crime that cops can pull you over for.
They can ticket you for unsafe driving if you’re going significantly below the speed of traffic. And in my area there is actually a minimum speed on the freeways.
But the way you worded it made it sound like you think you have to go exactly the speed limit at all times.

Well I was responding to someone who said:
And then said what I think they were pulled over for - but I don’t believe they could pull someone over for going the speed limit. That’s all.
