If you are tailgating me, I’m going to go exactly the speed limit. Back the fuk up and we won’t have a problem.

Teenager out of the parking lot for the first time.

If you can’t handle a windy road, don’t drive.

Also could be looking for an address or are generally unfamiliar with the road and feel uncomfortable taking the hills and curves at the speed limit. Could have had a bad experience like coming up on a cyclist too quickly, etc. The speed limit is the maximum legal speed, not the minimum. Only interstates have a minimum speed.

If they weren’t control freaks, they would pull over to let others pass.

Where are the cops for these a-holes?

They’re looking at their phones or are elderly.

Looky loos enjoying the scenery and/or playing with their phone. It's usually the latter.

They have Waze and have been alerted to police ahead.

Aren't speed limits there to ensure that those drivers safe? Driving significantly slower causes tailgating, like a PP above said, and even higher chances of an accident and road rage.

Because I can

Sometimes I slow down if you're REALLY tailgating me.

Think Old Dominion, or really any road where there's one lane in each direction and you can't pass. The speed limits also aren't very high (max 35 or so), but here we are, doing 20 (if we're lucky) with no traffic and lovely weather.
