Thread Name: BS: How Should I Deal With Tailgating?
Subject: BS: How Should I Deal With Tailgating?
Have just got home (phew!) after driving quite a long way alone. I was tailgated for much of this distance by a large 4X4 driven by a young lass. I was already doing the limit of 60mph on a single carriageway, but she was nearly touching my rear bumper. I was very frightened, as at that speed she'd surely have hit me had I braked for any reason. Any hints or tips from drivers here on the best way to deal with this menace? I still feel quite shaken; it was so aggressive, and I was keeping up the correct speed all the way, not dawdling along at all.
