The penalty wasn't about being slow, it was about being erratic. This was effectively the same as weaving, except it was with the brake and throttle instead of the steering wheel.

So if you weave in every straight, is that no longer dangerous ΒΏ?

It absolutely is, can and has been penalized, and is consistent with my point.... So what are you trying to say?
