While it isn't posted on the freeway it is in the traffic code. On I-5 where the speed limit is 70mph for cars and 60mph for trucks the minimum speed is 45mph. I have been clocked by the state patrol when I have driven my Gizmo on the freeway. It does 50mph at full throttle on the level so I have very little margin from getting pulled over. > If you feel uncomfortable about backing up traffic, you can be nice and > pull > over every few miles to let the queue pass you.
