If you have a manual car, just put the car into reverse with the cluth in, thats gotta scare him a bit..


One of my friend has a Aircraft Landing light hooked up to the back of his car, so if someone is tailgatting him he just turns it on so it blinds them to fuck that they either slow down or crash.

But really, just change lanes, speed up, or slow down so much that he'll have to pass you.

It's really good when they pass you, floor it down the road, and get to a red light. Then you get to tailgate them
You don't I've already tried that? It didn't do anything.
Wait so you mean you got out of the way n he switched lanes to still be behind you?

Exactly, for 5-6 minutes until my exit finally came on the highway.

Just slow then, hate those pricks who tailgate. Oh my, I drive 75 instead of 70 for five minutes. Yes, I'll be at my destination 2 hours earlier, mwoehahaha, mwoehahahaaaaaaaa, MOVE YOU FUCKING IDIOT WHO'S DRIVING 70!

My entire life consists of pissing off other drivers. I am the sole driver in Vancouver who drives legally.

As a starting point, it is always a good tactic regardless of situation to slow down. Force him to follow your speed, even if it drops below the speed limit by ten or twenty kilometres. Or, if you do not wish to be this antagonistic, follow the speed limit anyway. Stay constant and safe. Watch out for what he may do. Many will honk their horns and flash their highbeams for a single second (I don't get why they do it so quickly, just a quick flash), while profane gestures will be natural.

If the road is a single road, continue at your leisure. There is likely little way that he may get by. If he attempts to pass in the oncoming lane, put the petal to the metal and force him to panic. I don't suggest this highly. It is very dangerous, but if you are really pissed off, it can work. Hopefully you have good acceleration.

In the situation of a double road, he will likely attempt to pass once he realizes you aren't going to be going his speed. At this point, I will speed up in order to block him from getting ahead of me- Many cars are eventually forced to rejoin the lane that I am in, right back behind me as they were. Using another car is always the best possible situation, especially if you can find another car going at a lower speed. Using this other car, you can make it impossible for anyone to pass either of you. Frustrating other drivers is not a sensible plan, but an enjoyable one that can cause the tailgater great dismay.

I crank on the windshield mister and just clean my windshield until they back off enough.  I will also get in front of those that refuse to abide by the "slower traffic keep right" law, do the windshield cleaning trick until they get over into the right lane.  When it's raining out my trick doesn't work .....

Actually, nobody really tailgates me. I drive a Chevy 2500HD so not to many people decide they want to tangle ass with it. And wait until you guys have families in the car with you. When everything that means anything to you is in the car and some faggot little dickhead in his Honda Civic thinking he is Dale Earndhart because his muffler looks like a coffee can starts driving like a douche you just let him go by.

Highway: merge inbetween two trucks, where there is only enough space for you.
Residential: slow down, if that doesn't work, take a sideroad, if he's still following, pull over.

But usually I don't care until they start being dangerous. As in; slippery, uphill, with some retard tailgating you.

if you have the bigger then light up your brakes ..... if the asshole behind has the bigger, then smoke him and leave them trailing behind
I habitually tailgate things as big as and larger than that when cycling, tow hitch or no tow hitch. The bigger the guy overtaking you is, the more speed you can gain with almost no effort by pulling out as he goes past and pedalling like crazy in the calm patch.

It REALLY annoys people when I squeeze in behind them for a corner and ride the slipstream through it without having to pedal. Especially when I'm still doing it halfway to the next one.

Almost as satisfying as beating big german luxury cars away from traffic lights because of the time it takes to get that much weight moving at low revs.

Driving under the speed limit makes you just a big of a jerk as them. You aren't proving anything other than you are just as childish and immature as they are.

I have no idea why anyone would be fixated on another person like that on the road.
because apparently some people get so fixated on the person in front of you that you just tend to match them for speed. it also makes them look like better drivers when going around curves because they are essentially following in your footsteps. hope that helps. pretty sure thats why

Problem is, when it was happening, I slowed down, switched lanes, and sped up alittle bit, and he just kept on matching movements and velocity for 5-6 straight. I was considering going really slow, but I didn't think it would help any.

I did not suggest I'm "proving" anything.

Additionally, you are correct. I realize that committing these acts makes me a jerk. I did not contradict that claim.

My car's acceleration is great, and those are some good tactics. What if I'm on the highway, like when it happened to me today, and there aren't any cars nearby, so I quickly switch lanes, brake hard, and get behind him and tailgate his ass like he was doing to me. That would be interesting.

Yes, I realize there is a contradiction there.

I could try to justify it by saying I do it rarely, but there really isn't a justification. I know it's wrong, but I have bad days where I'm just fed up with other drivers. Besides, I'm still the most legal driver in Vancouver.

nomally when i am driving around its to take my dog to the woods, NOW my dog is very placid and great with ppl, but there some words that can get him barking and snarling, he is quite happy sitting in the back of my little jeep. so if some one tailgates me i say a few words slow right down and b4 you know it he is barking like a killer at the back window, they normally just over take or get of my arse...  he is a 7 st doberman btw
