How to Avoid Tailgaters

The best way to avoid tailgaters is to let them pass, if possible. Make that let them pass as quickly as possible. If you are riding side-by-side with another car, change your speed and let the faster car pass. Avoid creating a hazard with cars behind you jockeying for position. These drivers violate the safe following distance and many other rules.

Let them pass. It is much safer for all, especially the innocent drivers caught in the pack with those tailgating nuts.

Those tailgating crazies probably wish they had a giant spatula so they could flip you into the ditch and clear the road. Why do you want an idiot like that directly behind you? Again, let them pass. It is the best way to avoid tailgaters.



Everyone can use a refresher. Ask side-by-side drivers to follow me at DriveLikeMe.com. Otherwise, I will invent a giant moving spatula that flips their car into a ditch.
