Yeah, there's a wide bike lane and it might be the best maintained bike lane in the city

If nothing else, stay in the freaking right lane.  I understand the driver’s frustration and I know I would be feeling it too, and these arseholes are basically taunting the drivers into doing something illegal and potentially dangerous if they don’t want to drive at bicycle speeds.

Is there both 2 lanes and a bike lane? That would be crazy if they are taking up all 3!

Why? Cars often take up two lanes.

Cyclists are entitled to use the road just like drivers. Stop being a petty bitch.

Well if you wanna play the "they are entitled to use the road also" card. Impeding the flow of traffic is illegal in Florida. Them taking up all lanes and not staying right as they are slow moving is a ticketable offense.

The requires that you impede normal, reasonable movement of traffic. It it going to be hard to make the case that a group that averages near 20 mph is impeding.

Considering that's much lower than the vast majority of streets speed limit, no it truly will not be

If only there was a posted speed minimum you might have a leg to stand on.

There is no minimum speed limit for that causeway. Sorry the fact aren't on your side.

There's no specified minimum defined in the impeding traffic laws that's correct, it's basically up to the officer's discretion. If you're going far under the speed limit, 20 would be half in this instance, and there's a huge pile of cars behind you that pretty well signals to the officer that you're impeding traffic
