Sometimes in passing a driver acting dangerously it pays to get passed them as quickly as possible.

Or perhaps getting away from a natural disaster.

You mean like a tornado? Most natural disasters will end up with many people clogging the roads, generally won't see a lot of speeding as an option.

An unintended consequence of this will be massive lines of cars going down the highway because no one will be able to get up the speed to pass safely.

Going well below speed limit for no reason is also illegal in _some_ places.
