i dont get tailgated. if i'm driving 80 in a 55 people behind me are content with the speed and hang back, but i never cruise in the fast lane. i'll pass someone who sucks at keeping their speed and then move in front and set my cruise at 75-80 and stay in the middle lane, then when i creep up on someone i move over pass and repeat.

i used to brake check mofuggas...now i just slow down realllllll slow....i find its much better because of the fact that youre dragging it out by just going slower hahaha.

on my way to work one day, this one backroad i take is 45...most people do ~50 which is legit. this one dumb ***** started tailgating me while i was doing 55 one day, so i slowed down, and eventually ended up at 25 because the damn **** wasnt getting the hint lol...i love getting to work early, it leaves room for shenanigans like such haha.​

If its a 2 lane road, I'll speed up until I'm side by side with the car in the other lane and stay at their speed so the tailgater can't pass anyone.

u drive slow next the the slow driver and make them mad, thats my favorite

THANK YOU!

around here people are always tailgating, so much traffic it just happens. don't get me wrong, i have brake checked, but it's dangerous, and really not worth it, if they hit you, even though it is technically their fault, do you really want to deal with the cops, reports, insurance. It can be investigated, and if it's suspect enough you can actually be charged for intentionally causing them to rear-end you. to some it's seen as an insurance fraud attempt.

I have a few frequent coping mechanisms, my signature move is if i'm smoking a cig, i like flicking the butt out the sunroof and watch it in the rear-view as is blasts embers all over their windshield. it's tricky because the speed, wind, and how far up you flick it. not always effective, but when it works it's a great feeling. no permanent damage, they can't prove you did it on purpose. just hope their windows are up. pennies I've done too but felt kind of guilty for.

re-angling the washer nozzles to spray over your car. (oldschool)

but pacing the slowest car you can find in the lanes next to you (2 lane your direction is obviously the best) is to me the most satisfying. especially if you toy with them, speed up and put just a little distance ahead but not enough for them to pass. then ease off again.you can watch their face in the rearview, some people express their irritation in the most hilarious ways.
