Car chase!
So i was rolling around in my Mazda tonight (i dont think i was speeding TOO much) and this random Arab guy in a truck starts to tail gate me and i dont know about you guys but nothing pisses me off more!
He was on my *** for 5 straight mins and i finally snapped. So i zoomed off in my 8 and took some tight corners and pulled a quick U-turn to get away from him. But he didnt let up! This ************ roller right over the median and tried his absolute best to stay on my ***. soon after i turned into a neighborhood and lost him.
The reason i bring this up if because i wana know what you guys would have done in a situation like this.

I can't stand tailgaters!!...especially trucks and SUV's....although a highlight to my day is when they try and follow me onto an on-ramp.....the sight of them almost losing control in my rearview mirror is just too damm funny......makes me laugh out loud every time.

This is usually what I do.... let off the gas and just slowly coast down until they try to go around me, but depending on my mood after they move over to try and pass I'll downshift and speed up so they can't haha...But sometimes I'll just move over, like I said depends on my mood, sometimes it's enjoyable to mess with stupid people lol

if i feel that someone is way too close, especially when i am already exceeding the speed limit by a fair amount, a tap of the brakes (just enough to make my brake lights activate) while still on the gas lets them know i don't appreciate their lack of following distance. most people will get the hint and back off a bit. if have the option, i will change lanes and just get out of their way. maybe it is just me, but i try to avoid conflict on the road.
