We must do more to deter slow drivers

Slow-moving vehicles can be the base problem for many traffic accidents, and slowdowns.

The punishment for driving under the speed limit should be increased, in order to lessen the amount of vehicles driving vastly under the speed limit, seen daily on many roads.

A slow-moving vehicle can cause a citizen to drive recklessly, passing these vehicles closely with oncoming traffic, or even speeding once away, to make up for the time lost.

They also create an unnecessary congestion of traffic that would be alleviated with the removal or abating of these trucks and tractors.

All in all, the punishment for driving under the speed limit should be increased to make driving a much smoother experience for everyone on the road.
