The point of the law is to require slow vehicle operators (bicycles and
tractors for example) to not unreasonably prevent the the progress of
other vehicles. The solution is to move off the road and let others
pass if you are traveling unreasonably slow, and not hog the lane.

People towing caravans [...] do just this. [...]


Not so in the US. Or self-propelled caravans (motor homes) for that matter.


Ever drive in the Rockies? One RV can back up traffic for miles. There
are pullovers every so often intended to get the slower traffic out of
the way.
If the RV doesn't pull over when there's a place to do so, the cops will
force him to. Not to mention the drivers behind.
