What do you normally do?

[Captain-Obvious™]

This morning I was on a 2 lane road on the way to work. I was going about 5-8 over just cruising. Some guy comes speeding up on my bumper and tailgates me for a while. So I just gradually slowed down to 15 mph and stayed there till I hit Grayson Highway.

Now normally I would speed back up if they back off, but this guy didn't. So I didn't.

[Captain-Obvious™]

Needless to say, he wasn't very happy about it.

[DownSouthGB]

Brake check.

[Sammich]

[zspeed24]

[DownSouthGB]

Lolol, so you make sure you get your monies. I feels you lol.

[quickdodge®]

So I just gradually slowed down to 15 mph and stayed there

I do the same thing. Later, QD.

[Captain-Obvious™]

I don't understand people who brake check. I mean, I want them to be inconvenienced, not get into a wreck.

[Captain-Obvious™]

Will you still feel good after you get rear-ended?

[DownSouthGB]

Will you still feel good after you get rear-ended?
The money will help.

[ilovemyhonda.]

I slow down to like nothing and hopefully they get the hint or go around me.

Same here. Later, QD.

[PURP]

but what about the headache of worrying if he's got insurance AFTER he hits you. or the headache and stress of hoping your car is fixed back to normal, the headache of missing work over a brake check wreck. Honestly, how would that make you feel better??

[Sammich]

Will you still feel good after you get rear-ended?money money...call it sammich's girls lol

hail yea i'd feel great...i'm waiting for somebody to hit me..if u hit me hard enough i get a new car..if u tap me..i'm gettint eh whole car resprayed...either way im gettin paid son:lmfao:

[Captain-Obvious™]

Nah, you can't let 'em do that. If it's on a two lane road you speed up so they can't get by. And then when they get behind you slow down again. Unless of course it's on a road where passing is legal.

:goodjob:

what money?? The money it takes to fix some tail lights?? If you want to claim my neck my neck shit... good luck with that. I've been in a serious accident and had to deal with surgery and PT... not worth it, man. Plus it took way to long and I didn't get a fraction of what I was expecting.

Ah, i know what you mean. http://www.stickergiant.com/imgs/250/b5539.gif

If it is on a 1 lane rd going both ways, I slow down to like nothing so they either have to slow down or go around me illegally.

On a two or more laned road, If a car is in the other lane, I will maintain the same or a similar speed as that car so the person can't get around, only if they fly up on me and ride my rear.

Honestly I would care to a certain point, depending on which car gets wrecked. These days people can't afford to drive around without insurance. As far as my car being fixed back up, I would take care of it as much as I can and if I see it's not worth fixing then I would scrap it and move on. Nothing lasts forever.

injuries can... ask me how I know

That's because you didn't call:

One call that's all.

[Elbow]

Once I slammed on the brakes to a stop, then put it in reverse...they backed up, and when I went again, they stayed FAR FAR behind LOL.

[Sammich]

certain vehicles u just know that they have insurance...just sayin

[oneSLOWex]

I brake check but not slam on my brakes and actually try to stop.....pretty much just to show some brake lights so they get off my shit and most of the time it works. When they dont move back I just gradually slow down w/o using brakes and go slow as shit.

[PURP]

That's because you didn't call:




One call that's all.

actually... that's EXACTLY who I called and who I was represented by...

[Captain-Obvious™]

Aww, damn. I knew something was fishy about that guy.

[DownSouthGB]

If you get injured it's even more money. And I know you said you didn't get how much you were expecting but every case is different. My cousin got 5k for whiplash and a broken bumper.

[ilovemyhonda.]

Just listen to the way he talks, he sounds overly confident like he has practiced what he is going to say a million times.

[Captain-Obvious™]

That's because he's reading off a cue card.

[quickdodge®]

Nah, you can't let 'em do that. If it's on a two lane road you speed up so they can't get by. And then when they get behind you slow down again. Unless of course it's on a road where passing is legal.

If someone wants to get ugly, they can call the police and you can be charged with road rage, though. That can be a drawback of what you're saying here. Later, QD.

[Captain-Obvious™]

Shit, I didn't think about that. I guess I'll let them go by from now on.

This is my thoughts on brake check not so hard you get hit just enough to wake them up.

[ilovemyhonda.]

That's because he's reading off a cue card.

I know but I also meant like he has practiced it, like it is toooooo perfect. FULL OF SHIT IS WHAT HE IS.

[bu villain]

I just drive normally...I try not to let assholes dictate how I drive.

This morning I was on a 2 lane road on the way to work. I was going about 5-8 over just cruising. Some guy comes speeding up on my bumper and tailgates me for a while. So I just gradually slowed down to 15 mph and stayed there till I hit Grayson Highway.

Now normally I would speed back up if they back off, but this guy didn't. So I didn't.
Were you in the fast lane?

[VooDooXII]

I turn on my rear fog lights for tailgaters...works almost all the time.

[Jecht]

My car is small and low to the ground. If your headlights are all I see in my rear view mirror, you better believe I'm going to brake check you.

[antiv6]

I just slow down then eventually when they pass me i catch up and pass them just to piss them off
