[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have this problem too. I generally drive somewhere between the speed limit and 5-10 mph over. I generally stay to the right. People get aggressive and tailgate me. If someone is behind me pissing me off and I have the time, I slow down even more. The tailgaters are the ones who are "annoying and unsafe." [/quote]

That is really good way to get shot.

I drive slow and if some one tailgates me I pull over ASAP because I know I’m dealing with crazy. [/quote]

I'm also a careful and slow driver and I used to get really upset when people would tailgate me, because it is the height of rudeness when [b]you are essentially protecting other people on the road by being safe, [/b]but instead of getting angry now I just pull over.   Sometimes I will pull right back in behind them to show that I didn't like being tailgated.

But I would never slow down to aggravate someone. If I'm ever tempted to do that, I think about the crazy Idaho or Iowa killer (who killed the four teens) who was pulled over multiple times for tailgating people.  It's often really unhinged people who tailgate and I don't want to tangle with them  [/quote]

Except you’re doing the exact opposite with your policing behavior. No one asked you to protect anyone else Karen [/quote]
