people slowing down for no good reason hardly creates a "safe zone" of
any kind.  in fact it makes an accident far, far more likely as someone
may not be paying attention, in which case you have caused a collision,
and should rightly be held liable for all damage and injury done.  at
the least, you would be impeding traffic, which also increases accidents
by increasing congestion.  not to mention, i really don't appreciate
extra rf exposure with no benefit.
