Bottom line, you have a licence, you have the responsibility to obey the law. If the leader is breaking the law, you have the choice between doing the same or toeing the line. The resonsibility is yours and not the lead rider's. While a few extremists might scream for higher taxes and harsher legal penalties for everyone and everything, I'd rather not live in a police state, so I'll sincerely hope that you never see the inside of a political office other than being a delivery-boy.
I've organized my fair share of group rides. The speed is always the lowest speed that every rider is comfortable with. Why should I be more culpable than everyone else who chose to follow me? If you don't like the pace, signal that you're leaving the group and leave. Don't ***** and whine that the evil group leader coerced you to break the law and that you're just a poor lost little girl, just obeying the commands of his immense authority.
