[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 1609134, member: 1132"] You stated that you would brake check, so he didn't misread or fail to comprehend you. Tapping your brakes just enough to activate your brake lights is not brake checking. Slamming on your brakes in an effort to get the tailgater to slam on his is brake checking, which is stupid, dangerous and illegal. You loose any moral high ground about someone increasing the danger to you by following too close, when you willfully and intentionally decrease that following distance by brake checking. You've compounded their stupidity by doubling down on stupid. With the exception of the bolded part, this is a great post. We can't assume high levels of alertness in tailgaters these days. There are way too many distracted drivers on the road to assume anything. Other than that, this is the correct way to handle a tailgater or aggressive driver. [/QUOTE]
