I would say if she was going 70 MPH then she was going "normal speed" for that highway. If the trooper wanted to go above normal speed then he should have passed her on the right.
I don't like it when people hold up traffic in the left lane and they should be stopped by a trooper if they stay in that lane and don't travel at "normal speeds".
