What would you do if you were being tailgated?

Mike

There was a time that I would have done a brake check, or some other obnoxious thing, but when I was in a traffic ticket school one time, the teacher said that you think you are proving a point or teaching them a lesson, but nothing good ever comes of it, and I took it to heart. Now I just get out of the way.


However, I drive fast enough, that people don't really ever tailgate me.

Well, it really depends on what kind of car is behind me. If its cop, I'll just be a wise guy moving to side lanes, but if its not a cop, then... you know what comes up after that

Well..... first I empty a clip form my 9mm in the air out the window.

Seriously I just maintain and they usually back off.

A coworker of mine (high up manager actually) slammed on the brakes when someone was tailgating her. The car swerved and rubbed a wall. My coworker was arrested at work. It's all fun and games until you're in jail.

They arrested her for saving that puppy in the road she didnt hit by braking?

I am sorry I do not buy that story one bit. Something else must have been going on there. Like someone has said, they cant prove you were not avoiding an animal. It is perfectly legal to hit your brakes for that reason. Make sure to mention that you believed hitting the animal would cause you to swerve and get into an accident. This is why the 2 second distance rule is in place.

frost

Oh no, some internet guy doesn't buy my story one bit!
Witnesses, idiot.

Yes because witnesses are guaranteed to see a small animal in front of another car. Go BS elsewhere.

Blow me retard, this is phoenix arizona. There are no animals just running around, they would die. Wash my nut juice off your chin and waddle back to your twinkie, you're done here.

In Australia the following driver is responsible for keeping enough distance from you so that if you stop, for any reason, they won't hit you. It's always their fault if they hit you. Of course this rule doesn't apply if you cut into their lane or what have you.

Sometimes I wish I had a old bomb with a massive towbar so that I could teach people lessons.

Where is the "Keep slowing down until they pissed off and pass you" option?

I usually just move over or maintain my speed (if I'm doing the speed limit and I can't move over). It's not worth risking ticking someone off and having them go all road rage on your ***.
