Tailgating invites wrecks, playing games with people invites road rage and wrecks, if someone wants to pass me, and it's possible, as in we're on a divided highway or 2 lane with a passing zone, I let them, hell, I'll let them pass even on a double yellow because my motto is, when that guy whos driving like an assgoblin gets in a wreck, it's going to be a single vehicle accident, not involving me. |

I should note that I don't wake up every morning, get in my car, slide on a pair of sunglasses, and go out looking for old ladies in Buicks to harass. When I'm on the road doing the speed limit and some soccer mom decides she wants to get her Hummer H2 within 6 inches of my bumper yeah, I speed up because I don't want that bitch to suddenly be too preoccupied cursing at the gardener over her cell phone to stop at the light on time and have to pay the consequences when her front tire is resting on my head. I don't make it easy for those kinds of people to pass me because they'll just cut me off and drive 10 miles under the limit anyways. And I'm not about to go racing down a residential street at 50mph just to make sure some guy on my flank can't get past me. I don't speed but I might go a little over the limit just to maintain safe distances, and if some Mercedes driving business dude wants to risk a ticket from the ever-vigilant Grosse Pointe police by zooming past me...fine. |

#25, And if it sounds like I'm generalizing, so be it, I drive defensive when I have to but anyone whose been in a car with me can attest that I handle the road like the aforementioned old lady. |

I use the "2 second" rule, perhaps not as often as I should, but I try to keep safe distance between cars in front and behind me. And, in my defense, you should see the types of people I have to drive around |

I'm the ultimate defensive driver, I don't care who's technicaly in the right, if something starts developing that I don't like, I'm falling back and they can sort it out themselves without me. |

I remember my grandfather called other bad drivers on the road "blue hairs" and "Magoos". He also threatened to keep a bucket of gravel in his truck and throw it at people who displeased him on the road...jokingly of course. I know that didn't have any bearing on this thread, but I find it entertaining. |

The broken driver's side window motor on my Chrysler exacerbates my aggressiveness. |

#34, Um, I was thinking more on down payment + money you save on not doing expensive repairs.
Well, he could get new Chinese car with exact cost of a wrap. He would just die days later from exhaust exfixiation, e-coli, steering wheel coming off, and fresh radiator fluid spraying out the dash.

If someone's tailgating you just go really slow. |

I don't tailgate I draft :-P I'm a big fan of blocking in tailgaters on the highway. If some jack ass comes flying up on me and rides my ass (note I always go between 5 and 10 over the limit) I'll just speed up a little till I find someone going the limit then pace them. Hell I have paced people for miles at a time as long as I'm not blocking traffic behind me |

Nowadays I only use 'light tailgating' when someone blocks the fast lane for me, I very slowly close the distance. You know, just to let them know I'm there. I don't flash my lights at them, only pricks in German cars do that around here. If the guy refuses to move I sometimes resort to passing him on the right if the slow lane is empty. When someone tailgates me I simply move over. Now when there's no fucking way he can pass me and he still rides my bumper I get pissed. Usually a gentle caress on the brake pedal does the job, the safest way to do it is with the left foot, the right foot still on the throttle. |
