Ha, that would have been fun. Can a cheetah out race one of those?0 -
I slow right down0

I have no reaction. What's the difference if they're right behind me or a mile behind me. They're still behind me.0

Since I'm usually 5 to 10 over I slow to the speed limit. Most back off and we resume at my normal speed. But the other day that guy wouldn't back off, jerk almost made me late for work.
I've had semis on passes where all I can read is MACK in my review mirror. I'm doing over 70 and they're supposed to be going 60. I was moving over when I could but within a short while there be another one doing the same thing. A********. But my dad told me what to do with drivers like that next time.
My aunt had a cop tail gate her. She slammed hard on her brakes and he almost hit her. He stormed over to her door and demanded to know why she braked. All she asked was why were you so close that you couldn't safely brake? He got back in to his car and left.0 -
I slow down till the driver gets annoyed and passes me on the other lane lol.0
-
I try to make it easier for a faster drive to pass me - speeding up, moving over, waiting for them to pass before moving into the fast lane, etc. But if they insist on tailing me, then I do none of the above and they better hope there's an opening further ahead where they can pass me later!

In my old car I would suddenly hit my brakes to make them have to react quickly. They would back off quickly after that .
Since I just got a brand new car and don't want it damaged I just try to move over and let them pass .0 -
Foot off the gas...for as long as it takes.0
-
Speed up and see if they can catch you0

...how about this idea...
If you're in the left lane and just driving the speed limit to be a jerk...move the eff over....that's what the right lane is for...0
