Quote:When I took my driving test the instructor had to tell me to speed up, that's always a good sign.
That is not a good sign. It's not as bad of a sign as being told to slow down, but it is most definitely not a good sign. They WILL knock points off your test score if you do not drive fast enough. For one, it denotes a serious lack of confidence. For another, it denotes an even more serious lack of understanding about driving, and the surroundings and conditions you are in. Lastly, there are such things as minimum speed limits in this country (U.S.). As such, you WILL need to drive within a certain speed range. And that's just POSTED speed limits - there are upper and lower speed limits no matter where you drive, regardless of whether it is posted or not. Going 10 down a 45 zone will get you a ticket just as surely as going 65 in the same zone.
