if some1 tailgates me i wud left foot brake and scared them lol

[Jayboogz]

I usually just slow down it works well enough for me, and if they r still tailing I would trap them in without giving them a chance to pass in two lane traffic.

if im in the fast lane, i just let them pass obviously.
if theres only one lane, i just maintain my normal speed.

i wouldnt brake to scare them or slow down or try to piss them off on purpose.
if you brake to scare them and they rear end you, its their fault, but jokes still on you because you have to deal with an accident now.
if you slow down then you're just asking for confrontation, which will just piss you off and get you all riled up over nothing.

[AzNightmare]

SO where is the difference between being vigilant about tailgaters, and simply moving
aside because you're not the damn police?

I've heard both sides of the story.

actually in the driver's manual they tell you to slow down and/or keep at the posted speed limit..that way it gives the tailgater more distance/reaction time to brake

Who's got that youtube of the mazda 3 who put an airsoft gun in the front grill. lol...

Once I was going up the street casually at the speed limit on nanimo next to a van.
some punk kid in a prelude couldn't pass us so after tailgating both of us and weaving back and forth what does he do? cross the yellow and pass in opposing traffic barely missing a bus.
Guess why me and the van were going the speed limit... Police had a car pulled over up ahead.
Guess who the cops visited next....
It was nice driving past the kid, who got pulled out and cuffed, giving him a wave.

I assume for wreckless/dangerous driving.
Unless they had something else in the computer on him.

[Dentz]

I stick to my guns, and keep it at the posted limit or the flow of traffic (ie. 60 in a 50). If the asshole persists, I'll open up the car's throttle a little and show em who's boss. Mind you most of my tailgaters are shitty econo-boxes wanting me to push the "go-fast-pedal."

Case-in-point was this weekend. Had a beat-up MKI GTI tailgating the living shit out of me on West Saanich Road. I didn't want to play, but his tailgating pissed me off enough to boost away from him on a straight stretch; no need to floor it, just a light 3 psi pull.

I don't know whether you or the van were in the left lane, but if both of you were doing the speed limit driving beside each other, then one of you was being an idiot for blocking the passing lane. Of course this is assuming that nothing was in front of the person in the left lane also, but if you're there and someone's coming up from behind you, you gotta move over, even if you're going speed limit. It always boils my blood when two butt buddies are driving beside each other on a two lane road and nothing's in front of them.

[Phil@rise]

Thats just stupid and your endangering yourself by doing that.
When some douchecanoe tailgates me I in a very controlled manner start slowing down till they pass me once on the hwy I slowed to 10kmh before they passed me. Don't hammer on the brakes your just gonna get hurt get a ticket and icbc won't cover your damages. Someone did that to me not to long ago for no reason just trying to get rear ended by a big 4x4 and when he called the cops claiming I rear ended him they charged him.

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

^

how can they prove it tho? thought rear enders always at fault?


wouldnt it be hard to prove? thought ICBC loves to make it 50/50


shit i need that, better than some asshole doing break checks lol

[unit]

if you're doing 80 and being tailgated and you dropped to 60 and cruised, you're just asking for it. accident wise, the driver's manual is right... but you're asking to get road raged on.

[AzNightmare]

Don't think you're being the better man by being a douche that purposely slows down.
You're being an asshole, just from the other perspective.

how are you showing him whos boss?
hes tailgating you because he wants to go faster.
all you're doing by speeding up is giving him exactly what he wants, not teaching him a lesson.

It was more of a figure of speech. I was already traveling a bit over the limit, so there's no need to go any faster on a semi-wet back-road, let alone have some stupid driver thinking he's "the shit" tailgating me.

I boosted away from him so I don't get rear-ended, not to mention my turn off was only a couple hundred meters up. Thus getting away from him gave me adequate room to signal, slow down, and slowly turn onto my road (my power steering isn't hooked up right now, so slow-speed turning with a 4000lb car can be a bit difficult). Bit of a convoluted method, but that's what I did, and it worked at the time.

Though there's a huge temptation to blind the fuck out of the douchbags behind tailgating you, I don't see how this will make anything better except making the situation escalate.

where to get these license plate frame?

[blackGS?]

I always move to the the right hand lane when safe to allow them to pass me.
Sometimes they still tail me... so... i just turn my windshield washers on for a few seconds and spray their just recently washed/detailed car.

Also, when I'm driving my beater diesel vw on the right hand lane and someone is on my tail, I just floor it leaving a big puff of black smoke behind me...very ninja like...95% of the time they back off:D

i think thats your misunderstanding, that you think people tailgate because they think they're "the shit". its because they want to go faster than you, no other reason (unless you pissed them off and they're trying to piss you off in return).

Not at all. My DD (newer VW) never gets people constantly coming out of nowhere and tailgating me on back-roads/2 lane roads/Highways (where I stay in the right lane at the limit). However, every-time I take out the "toy car" stuff like that happens, without fail.

Believe what you want, but that's what happened. No use mentioning it anymore as it's in the past now; perhaps next-time I'll do it differently.
