That's right, those cool "badass" I just got my car cleaned and I'll tailgate you kinda people, make it even more enjoyable! I then laugh when I look at my rear view mirror and his window wipers are going off and they slow down. =D

The best ever.

I learned this technique from a psychology teacher. You aren't brake checking them, but you sure as pissing them the hell off.

Its best not to make others mad, it will lead to road rage or someone to be killed. Just let jerk go and hope they will wreck up ahead on their own.

And when they do, make it a point to stop and laugh. Don't help them out, they got what they deserved - just point and laugh. Then drive off.

And when he hits the OP's car? And when the car crushes the fully loaded trunk into the passenger compartment? And when the three rear seat passengers get compacted into the front seats? What then? Yeah, that's a brilliant suggestion dub599...

i don't think he means slam on his brakes... just bring him in closer. then then hit the brakes and let him fly right by!

no seriously though.. if its 3 in the morning and I'm already in the middle lane going 65 and someone has the nerve to tailgate, i slow down to about 40. i don't understand why someone has to tailgate me on a 3 lane highway with nobody else on the road.. true story by the way!

not to mention that stomping the brakes through tight corners in a loaded Camry isn't a good idea either...
