John From Detroit said:I very strongly suspect this is a "your millage may vary" question.. Laws vary from state to state on these issues and sometimes even county or city withing the state.
So the best advice is ... If you gotta go.. go where you gotta go to go.. But return promptly to your seat and buckle in.

In my mind a vehicle going slower than the flow of traffic is more dangerous than one going the same speed as most of the traffic.
I do not agree with California and other states that require trucks and some other vehicles to go 5-20 mph less than the rest of the traffic.

Thanks Kevin for that CA code. Looks like it is OK but not real safe. BTW, I am right around the corner from you in Santee
