A sensible safe speed that will allow the Chelsea Tractor to stop in a
safe distance may be higher than an ordinary car, but it's a lot less
than a proper car.

Inconsiderate works both ways - when you squash something small by going
too fast, and when you hold up traffic by going too slow.

You aren't holding up traffic if you are travelling at the maximum safe
speed or the limit (whichever is lower).


To be fair, you may be holding up inconsiderate, homicidal morons.
Statistically that's probably quite common.
