when someone is following you too closely in the car

[Stryker1992]

if the kids arent in the car, I down shift abruptly...no brake lights..no warning...fuck you
I've also been known to get out of the way then proceed to draft their asses in my german sedan.....looks at pick3

if im not being a nasty bitch for the day or the kids are in the car...I pull over or change lanes as appropriate

I have road rage issues though

ya...you think!

I wouldn't recommend doing that in SoCal, bro.

i live in north central pa..where you can still have a heart-to-heart with some asshole without getting shot..punched in the nose maybe..but not ventilated

just check the plates first. Make sure they aren't visiting from Cali.

i do.

First light or stop sign I get out and go tell them to stop riding my ass.

I'm always checking mirrors, so if I see someone coming up and I can get over, I do. If I can't get over and they are being real assholes, doing the NASCAR drafting, maybe getting onto the shoulder, etc., yes I will tap the brakes. I won't slam on the brakes, but I will let them see my brake lights so they back off. Then I will get over when I get the chance.

It's just a matter of situational awareness and normal consideration.

I let him pass, then I get right behind him and tailgate him. I then proceed to turn on my high beem if it's night time or honk like mad if it's day time...then when he looks at me weird, I go like: what? whatchu gonna do? and if any of you have seen my pictures, you know I look intimidating enough lol

P.S. I absolutely HATE it when someone drives too closely behind me...it really pisses me off

Lot of anger issues in here.
Just saying.

Last night, I was on my way home to Ventura County from the Santa Monica Pier, where I went to see a retirement celebration for long time TV newsman Stan Chambers... I used Pacific Coast Hwy to Malibu Canyon; appx 12 miles across the mountains to Hwy 101. Malibu Cyn is 1 lane each direction, and passing is illegal/unsafe anyway. Speed limit 45 most of the way, and 50 in the northern few miles. Some selfish b*tch in a Nissan SUV was tooling along at 20-30, with at least 9 cars following. Those of is near the front of the backup flashed her, and tried to be polite. She refused to use any of the yielding turnouts, which are PLAINLY marked, and signs warn "SLOW TRAFFIC USE TURNOUTS!". After doubling the time it normally takes to get from PCH to Hwy 101, I finally got alongside her just before coming to the end of the road at the 101. She had a lap desk with full bluetooth keyboard and an iPad or something like that, and was evidently writing letters. I was in the 1-ton Chevy Diesel with a full load of horse bedding, and it was STILL so slow as to be frustrating. If I had been in another vehicle without a tall load, I'd surely have blown a fuse and blasted past her illegally, risking her wellbeing and my own!
