Hi Sup Forums
are there tailgaters in your country?
I was driving just now on a 2 lane highway and this guy was tailgating so bad. I was in the left lane doing the speed LIMIT (as in you are not allowed to go faster) do you have assholes like this in your country?

First of all yes, BMWs will be on your ass even when you're already hurrying up.
Secondly get the FUCK out of the OVERTAKING lane if you're not overtaking.
Yes
It's especially annoying if you're driving a motorcycle
Sure. Also most people here seem to have no clue at all about safe distances.
To be fair a lot of distance rules stem from a time when cars had drum brakes and no anti-lock system. There's no way I'm leaving a 65 fucking meter long gap going 130 on the Autobahn.

Too bad all these inventions that made the automobile more efficient and safer have been outweighed by people being physically unable to stop staring at their flashy chinese goytoys.
Yes. But I give way as soon as it is safe. He can die for all I care. I have a wife and kids to go back to. If I get mad at someone tailgating and driving too fast, I just say "he must need to go to the toilet really bad" and give way.
no we do not have tailgaters here in denmark because it's not possible with our level of gravity
Americans aren't really familiar with the concept of overtaking lanes.
The left lane is for passing only you fucking retard. That's why he was tailgating you.
Sorry guys but the speed limit is the speed LIMIT. Just because he wants to break the law AND tailgate to boot ( unsafe driver ) doesn't mean I should have to move over. Esp if there's already a car right next to me in the right lane.
>doesn't mean I should have to move over.
You should if the right lane isn't full of trucks like it often is. Also, it's not your job to enforce the law. Let the idiot go, the sooner he's out of your sight, the better.
You're exactly the kind of piece of shit I have to tailgate on a daily basis...
It is illegal nearly everywhere in the US to be in the passing lane if you are not passing. You were breaking the law.

Then don't move over and enjoy getting tailgating lol. I personally like to drive in both lanes until one car gets tired of looking ridiculous and moves over. High quality entertainment.
New driver confirmed.
Everyone knows highway patrol will tolerate up to 10 mph over the limit.
>Then don't move over and enjoy getting tailgating lol.
I don't enjoy getting tailgated, I wish people could just go the speed -LIMIT- and maintain save distances. Why would they put other people's live in danger like that.
Convict.
It's not illegal just because YOU want to BREAK THE LAW, kthxbye
It's also not my job to let a SPEEDER through. They should have thought about leaving earlier rather than putting my life and everyone else on the roads lives in danger because they have no self control and are always tardy.
YES
You're not the fucking police. Let them deal with speeders, instead of being a passive-agressive moron.
No, it depends on where you are.
In some countries and states flow of traffic comes before the speed limit.
I work at the swedish agency responsible for revoking licences for ppl who commit traffic crimes. I take greay joy in making the lifes of these tailgaiting assholes as miserable as fuck. All within the context of my authority and with total regard to the law of course.
how I deal with tailgaters is I floor it until they disappear in the distance. if they try to keep up I play a game of who can go faster until one of us dies
I've always wanted to install a switch that flashes the break lights but doesn't actually brake the car
yes, but they are all c*Lifornians
we have notoriously low speed limits (35 or 20mph around town and 55 or 65mph on the freeway)
also nearly every freeway is only two lane
the world needs more people like you
