I suppose it depends on the country, but usually roads mandate minimum speeds (tipically half the max speed) in order to avoid issues like this. Anything lower than the minimum speed should be treated like a static obstacle, so maximum speed should always take into account unexpected hazards.

Given that cyclists cannot tipically maintain the minimum speed required in any country road, they cannot share the road with faster vehicles. It's either curbs or segregated roads. Anything else is plain craziness.

Which countries have minimum speed limits? Not the US or UK to my knowledge?

(Yes, there are plenty of other countries, but those seem to be the two most discussed here)

In Belgium on the highway, the minimum speed is 70km/h (max is 120km/h)
