![]() Have you ever had someone tailgate right up your tailpipe, and then you kicked it down, and did the quick slowdown, causing the other guy to slam on his brakes?
I did it on a CRV today, he flipped me off, but he stayed FAR away. Probably dangerous and stupid, but so is tailgating.

![]() Buy a grand cherokee and you'll be tailgated by everybody in town, even at ridiculous speeds.
![]() I was fed up with the tailgating one day and bought two bumper stickers for my jeep - One said "I brake for tailgaters", and the other said "I have good brakes, do you have good insurance?". Not a single person tailgated me when I had those on, but they made my jeep look like junk so I removed them.

![]() I always get tailgated and flipped off by Honda drivers.
I have a bumper sticker that says "My lug nuts require more torque than your Honda makes".
