You are not the traffic czar who gets to decide for everybody else what a safe
speed is. If others disagree with you about what a safe speed is, you need to move over.
To insist that you know better than others what the proper speed should be is myopic and conceited.

Were they going the safe speed considering the circumstances like weather etc?

Obviously not since they were impeding traffic, which is a ticketable offense

If the other drivers are driving an unsafe speeds they should be ticketed.

If everyone but the impeder is going the same speed? Quixotic.

The safe driver should never be ticketed at least by law.

Impeding traffic is not safe and is a ticketable offense. That's the law

Sorry not going to happen. You aren't going to make me alter my safe speed.
