If you’d get out of the passing lane, no need for me to ride your ass

Actually, now he is doing 35 and I'm passing him. Why do Americans think they control the speed of other drivers. That car back there? It didn't get dropped there by a helicopter. It's faster than you. Move over and let it pass. Get over your righteous self.

You do realize that not every road is 2+ lanes in each direction, right? Around here highways are ALL 2 lanes, with occasional stretches of 3 and rarely 4 lanes. Tailgating is illegal. Get over your righteous self.

I ride an old motorcycle. Its slow, like almost can't get out of its own way. I get tailgated a lot. Best answer: pull over, let 'em go. That gets them the hell away from me, doesn't antagonize anyone, and I'm in no rush anyway.

(This isn't pointed at anybody in particular, more the whole discussion)

I've actually had someone follow me and cuss me out after we were both stuck behind a slow moving truck.

 

Lady, if you can't drive through other traffic, I don't see why you should expect that physics-defying ability of others.

 

99% of the time, people tailgate because they don't realize that following at half a car length is bad form.  They don't look any further forward than their own hoods.
