Is It Against The Law To Drive Below The Speed Limit?

[Zak51arc]

Recently, I was en route to a hospital appointment. I was driving at 45mph in a 50 limit. The police pulled me over, there was only the one. He gave me a dressing down, told me that I should be driving at the speed limit unless conditions didn’t allow it. He said he was a police sergeant. He said he was concerned about my ability to drive several times. I was concerned about his ability to be a police officer! He was very officious, demeaning and down right nasty. Fortunately, my husband was with me, therefore I had a witness. Truly shocking.

sounds like a hobby bobby (special) - they love to throw their weight around. I used to live next door to one, he used to wear his uniform round the flat even when not actually coppering!
