As per my information I dnt have seen any function that help us in controlling the speed of WebDriver. 

But in webdriver we have explicit and implicit wait that works as a speed controller but these are used to just wait for a specific code for visibility of element.

On the otherhand Selenium RC is lashed with setSpeed() function and through this function we can control the speed just by giving time argument of time type in milisecond

You can use Thread.Sleep(500) (or equivalent) in whatever language you are using to run web driver. This will cause the thread to pause for an exact number of milliseconds.
