Does this happen to any of you? Every time when I drive, some idiot always seem to be on my bumper. I go the speed limit, sometimes exceeding it a little. We just got a few inches of more snow here in upstate NY, and these manics do it anyway. When this happens, I purposely slow down just to piss them off. Warining, don't tailgate the driver in front, because you never know how soon they will break.

Yeah it happens to me all the time. Sometimes I just want to slam on my brakes. I wouldn't do that, because chances are I'd get hit.

:nonono:

People shouldn't be doing that along with some other things but that's just the way it is unfortunately. Everybody thinks that they own the road and could do whatever the want without no regard to anybody else.

Yeah, and it pisses me off, especially in snowy/icey weather. I don't want my car wrecked because some ******* thinks he's in a huge hurry.

Many a time I have wanted to slam on my brakes on purpose just to make them run into me. Alas, I don't own a car that's crappy enough to do that.

It rarely ever happens to me since I drive quite fast, but once in a while it still does even though I'm driving like 80 mph!

I absolutely hate it, too, especially when I'm in the right lane!! That's why they made a left lane, moron!!! I do put on my brakes, though, just to piss them off. There is no reason at all for that.

It happens to me all the time. Where I live you should be going 40 MPH.

I go 45 MPH Yet I have these MORONIC people behind me on my tail. And I hate when they're really, really far away from you and they slam on their gas and catch up to you. That just irks me.... They do it here all the time. :mad:

Tonight on the highway I saw a cop tailgating someone for a distance,then that car pulled into the middle lane and so did the cop..... When he did,his lights went on and he attempted to pull the car over... They drove on a little bit and finally were on the side of the road....

I remember years ago I was in my friends car and someone was tallgating us and the mother slammed on the brakes!!!!! -- I was scared they would take out a gun or something!!

The mother got out and was yelling at the other driver.......... Geez ya cant risk that these days!!!

I just ignore anyone who is tailgating me, they can go around me if they think I am driving too slow.

With me it's usually some guy in a big truck right on my bumper. I usually slow down. Geez, just pass me.

On the interstate it's the worst. You're going 70 and it's like you've suddenly got a short tow chain with a car inches away.

I have an idiot "friend" that takes me out on tues/fri and he drives so slow we always have people tailgating us!!

If I could find someone else to take me out,I would.. Alot of things I do not like about this guy!!!
