[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I brake check the hell out of tailgaters. I’ve been hit twice, got settlements both times. If you tailgate me your brakes and your reflexes better be tip top. Otherwise you’ll be paying me. Again. [/quote]

You better hope the next guy doesn’t have a dash cam.

So reckless. [/quote]

Why would a dash camera change anything?  It would show the at-fault driver was following at an unsafe distance immediately before the crash.

Hitting your brakes isn’t illegal. Running into someone because you were following too closely is. [/quote]

Both brake checking and tailgating are considered to be examples of aggressive or reckless driving.[/quote]

How do they know it was aggressive driving and not panic braking?

If there was a piece of debris in the road ahead. Or a deer that suddenly appeared on the shoulder. You could claim either of those, or something equally plausible. The dash cam wouldn’t be able to refute it because what you’d claim “it” was wouldn’t be in the camera field of view anyway.

How about YOU stop defending/advocating on behalf of tailgaters? [/quote]

Having 2 lawsuits for being rear ended is a huge red flag[/quote]

I wonder if the car insurance company will become suspicious of reckless driving. [/quote]
