i'd like to thank all you guys who like to throw things at tailgaters. it could be one of you that left the junk on the road for the car in front of me to kick up and bust my windshield. i just really wanted to give away that $250 that i could have used for groceries that week. eating is overrated anyway

you never know where that lug nut, spark plug, etc. is going to end up after it bounces off the guy tailgating you. why don't you just slow down, and let them pass and not phook up someone else's day?

Was it worth it, and would you do it again or different?

If I'm slowed down by traffic, like the OP, a tap or two to show the brake lights usually does it.

If I'm not slowed by traffic, I make sure I'm doing 5-10mph over the speed limit and that I'm in the right most lane and that I'm not impeding the flow. Let's be real, how many times have we seen guys doing exactly the speed limit or even a little under?

If that fails, I either crank it and get the hell out of there or pull over and let the tailgater by, depending on my mood.

No point getting bent about it.

Act like you're picking your nose and then extend your left hand out into the breeze and rub your thumb and index fingers together as if you're trying to launch a booger!

AHHHHH! That is really funny! BTW, nice looking ride Bill !!

I just generally slow down and let them pass. I'm to the point that it's not getting worked up over. If they follow me into a rest stop and start in on me, well that changes the game.

Most people are just all jacked up and feel the need to get to the next event as quickly as possible. I personally think it's because when they were kids, their soccer mom's ran their little butts to one event after another and they grew up that way. We used to stay home and make our own fun. I see young girls rolling at 95 mph on the interstates cutting in and out of traffic like high speed racers, must be some new breed of "Nascar Mommy" now. I stay clear of those gals, they will mow you over and keep right on texting.

Although i some times feel like throwing things like rocks/ sparkplugs/ lug nuts, at ignorant cagers myself, I don't.
Just hoping like hell that a vehicle in front of me don't pick up a rock/ sparkplug/ or lug nut and plants it in my face.
Just saying......
