Dealing With Tailgaters

Been seeing some references to this in several of the threads. I try to keep my mind calm when someone is obviously trying to crowd me. Sometimes the only option is to try and ignore them until an exit comes up and then I gladly pull out of the throng and let them cruise on. But...thenI came across this little device that could be just what I've been looking for . If I can just get a model that'll fit in my overnight bag behind the sissy bar. Maybe a subcompact model?

That is neet. The problem with tailgaters are they are in a hurry to get somewhere when they should have gotten up earlier or left home 15 minutes earlier.

I always ride with loose pennys in my pocket. If they dont get the hint. I check your pickets and they will get the hint.

It's a little bulky but if I can get it mounted properly, this would deter most tailgaters.

RebelNC, that is a riot... [sm=funnypostabove.gif] I have to get me one of those monkeys..... If I run into that situation, I slow down and eventually pull off the road. I don't need to have my butt run over... Cagers aren't the only ones who can cause problems..... I've had folks on bikes cause the same problem, harleys & rice rockets....
