Florida law allows police to ticket drivers who impede traffic by driving too slowly, especially in the left lane when others are trying to pass. This is considered a moving violation, and can result in fines and points on your license

And if you are only capable of driving a car 20 mph in a 45 mph zone, you need to turn in your drivers license. I'm pretty sure I was behind you today/
