After reading what I typed I ment when you turn right not left.
Also when it's red they don't turn right even if it's clear and no cars coming. What I was trying to get across was that they have thier turn signal on so you know they want to turn right but yet they still wait for a green light. I'm not getting on to them about the turn signal. In fact I don't like it when people don't use their turn signals. Thats what I was trying to get across.(I see why I failed at that attempt lol)
Man I sounded like a real ass hopefully this will clear it up a little

I appreciate signaling especially with horses on board a trailer. For oeople that don't signal I'll get them with the air horns so they now have a load in their pants and I have a smile on my face.

LOL

I hooked up an airhorn to my truck about 6 months ago and I'm still on the edge of my seat waiting for someone to do something stupid. Just so I can tell them how I feel about their stupidity.

My wife hates it lol

Hit them under an overpass.

When I get tailgated I just slow down, then if they are still there I drop 5mph under the limit, this is only when they are tailgating me for no good reason I'm not hanging out in the left lane holding up traffic.

I especially like when people tailgate me on residential roads I'm going 30 in a 25 and they get up on me like I should gun it.

So far everyone's slowed down because when they back off my ass I go back to normal speed and if they stay off my ass I resume my 5mph over the limit average otherwise I drop back down it is sort of like training a dog only not as fun.

[Whumbachumba]

I will just coast down if there is a tailgater on me. If that doesn't clue them in, I'll tap the brakes. Usually they'll back off some, if not, it's a hard it of the brakes. That gets most of the other people off my backside. If I can't see the tires of the car in front of me, I'll back off, on the highway, I'll give it atleast 3 cars lengths to them.

The people not turning right on red doesn't really piss me off. It's the people in the other lanes that cross the solid line and end up in the cross walk so you can't see around them that piss me off. And it's usually the trucks/suvs that do it too, so you either have to put yourself out into the intersection to see, or wait for the green because asshole next to you can't stop where they are supposed to. Not to mention, they are putting any pedestrians into danger by stopping that far out.

[vwracer14]

i had a tailgating problem today.in the little town were i live its been 55 mph for years.last week they changed it to 45,well most people have'nt noticed the speed change yet,so the cops have been pulling people over like wild fire.

anyway im comeing home today,and i slow down for the 45(doing 50)and this women gets right on my ass.she starts swerving,even honked at me a few times.so i start comeing up to my turn,and i put on my blinker(a good 500ft. from the road),then i slow down to turn..................AND SHE CAME SO CLOSE TO MY BUMPER I COULDNT SEE HER HOOD IN MY REARVIEW!!!!!!,and that saying something because i drive a sonoma...........so she locks up her brakes,and lays on the horn,then turns to follow me


now were on a 25mph road,and were comeing up to my driveway.agin i put on my blinker about 300ft. away,and start slowing down......SHE LOCKES UP HER BRACKES GOING LESS THAN 25 MPH!!!..........so i make the turn,and i have to get out to get the mail.and she starts yelling at me,and takes off down the road.she runs the stop sign about 50 yards down the road were.............a cop who is my next door neighbors brother pulls her over




justice was serverd

[Tonto Kowalski]

Nice when justice is served but that's rare. Usually retards get away with it. Tailgating in heavy traffic is sometimes unavoidable because if you leave a big space in front of you someone will get in there. What pisses me off is when someone rides my ass through normal traffic, even though I usually go at least the speed limit or a bit above.

I heard of a guy who drove around waiting for people to tailgate him, then he threw his hat out the window and slammed on the brakes. If the tailgater hit him, he sued them. He made a lot of money.

There are times when I and others are in a hurry. When your stuck behind someone thats not in a hurry just taking their time drives me up the wall. I don't tailgate except when I'm in a hurry and I don't get that close to the other car.

I no longer tailgate anyone. I watched a crazy friend of mine(I was riding with him at the time.) He put up with this assbag for about 10 min. He then promptly slammed on his brakes!!!! This assbag, then had to slam on his brakes and drive up onto the median.It appeared to me he had a little bit of damage to the underside of his jeep. I also read in the paper several years ago. About, a man who was tailgating another driver , until he actually bumped his vehicle. He got out, and shot him with a 22 in the neck and stomache..My point is, be careful who you f#$%^ with. Everybody is in a hurry. But, it's not worth ending up dead , or going to jail for.

[skatendestroy]

I can not stand tailgaters and I absolutlyhate people who love to drive up on your ass wityh their highbeams on. I have found that random brake checks work well and also a way to fool people is to drive with two feet one just riding the brakes just enough to turn on your brake lights and the other working the gas. it works wonders.
