How do you react to tailgaters?

In California it's pretty much customary to drive about 15mph over the speed limit on the freeway in the center lanes. That generally means 80mph in the fast lane. There are idiots who still tailgate you at that speed which is crazy. I usually change lanes so I can roll down my window and yell, flip them off and challenge them to a dual. I'm trying to not do that anymore though...

[QUOTE="hippiesanta"]I usually press the brake for few second.... to give tailgates a little shock. One incident happen when I do this...... I heard difting sound behind me.... he almost skidded..... I lolgotdangit

Lol I used to break check hardcore. But I'm a bit more mature these days. I just go the same speed.

if i'm on a regular street, i will slow down to annoy them (hopefully they don't hit me though)

lol, I probably would push the breaks, idk if I can be that mean though so I would probably just slow down.

I tap on the brakes.

You have a tailgater. Who's probably already aggrevated because you're driving slow. So you slow down to make them angry.

Why would you purposely try to cause a situation?

I either stay the same speed, or if I'm in the faster lanes on the freeway, I switch over.

Seems like most OTers like to fight bad driving... with more bad driving.

slow down and generally ignore my rearview to pretend I don't notice them.
