Yea I need to vent about the almost nightly tailgating I encounter, how annoying this is when going 70 ( 65 posted ) for about 15 miles. Roads here are pitch black, I'm coming home around 10 at night, this road has many hiding spots for the PoPo ( never there when you need them ). Car rides up on my back where I can't even see their headlights and stay there breathing my exhaust for many miles. Funny part is that when I come into town at the first traffic light I get into the right lane and the car passes me and it's a small car, Prius, Camry, Sentra etc...

Okay I'm done...
Thanks

Were you riding the left lane for no reason? Sounds like he should have been able to pass you otherwise. I'm assuming any road with a 65mph limit is at least a 4 lane highway, otherwise the other car was just a dick lol

Road has two passing lanes for a total of about 4 miles, rest is one lane, road is also coming down through the mountain pass, I will always ride the right lane as to not block any traffic.

Funny but probably works fine.

When I was driving my truck, which I didn't care how scuffed/banged up it got with chips and whatever else, I'd ride the shoulder of the lane and kick up a bunch of little rocks and stuff with my tires. When doing a quick little brake check, speeding up, and all the rest almost always fails, that one typically never failed to get them to back the fuck off. Even if you couldn't give two shits about your paint and body, nobody wants cracks/chips in the windshield. There's no way in hell I do that behind the wheel in this car though. Not giving myself the collateral damage of rock chips just to teach the dingleberry clinging to my ass behind me a lesson.

I did this to a guy in his BMW trying to be cute in-front of his girl (really it was me being the asshole). He was sticking one of his hands out of the sunroof and waving it around like an idiot so I held the washer fluid button down for a solid 5 seconds. Saw him angrily retract his hand and get a butthurt look on his face before he downshifted and floored it by me.
