How do you deal with tailgaters that flash their brights at you for not speeding?

How do you deal with tailgaters that flash their brights at you for not speeding?
It's fucking hell especially if they're trucks.

Could I capture video of them doing it with a dashcam or something and submit it to the PD?
Bullying with brights is a hugely popular activity in my city (fredericton, new brunswick) and I fucking hate it, making it clear to them that blinding me with brights will just get me to slow down more to avoid accidents doesn't seem to convince them.

By getting out of their way and not driving 10-15mph? I fucking hate slow fucks like you that make city driving even worse than it actually is

I typically go 5-10 over the limit out of town. If someone gets on me out there I let them by, clearly they're more confident in not getting a ticket than I. In the city I just live with it. Flip your mirror to night mode and ignore them, then you won't even be blinded.

2/10 good effort.

Yeah, I oughta get some solution that'll allow my side mirrors to go to night mode since they still get me.
It's a hassle they can't pass me because there's a lot of streets where you can't pass.

This. If you're slow enough to go speed limit, you can take your drive slow by just moving out of the way for us.

I'm dead serious, I have to deal with pussy ass faggots like you everyday. It's one thing not to speed, understandable even, but going 10-15mph and stopping when you don't have to stop is annoying as fuck and fucks everyone else over behind you. If you're that scared to drive like a normal person in the city then get public transit or a cab like the other nu-males.

why do you pull those claims about my driving habits out of your ass?

I drive 10 over the speed limit at all times (as is legal in my province) but I stop going fast as soon as someone tries to blind me because I do not want to pose a risk to others by speeding while I run the risk of getting blinded by side mirrors.

How about getting the fuck out of the way? People like you make me want to flip to fuck out and shoot a motherfucker. Get off the damn road.

Yeah, I don't believe you, at all. You're going 10 over the limit yet people are still fucking with you? Then you're either still going to slow or you're driving like a dumbfuck somehow. But I'm going to go with you being a liar and that you are, in fact, a slow fuck that loves being in everybody's way then get mad when people get pissed off and have somewhere to be. Again, take public transit if you don't like it. Not everyone drives like their in a parking lot everywhere they go.

For me I always hang in the right lane doing 5-10 over the speed limit so most excessive speeders have no reason to tailgate me. The only time I use the left lane is to make a turn, and even then I do speed up to traffic in the left lane. However I refuse to do 80 in a 55 because some lifted brodozer forgot to reconfigure their speedometer for the giant tires they have (Last time I tried I got ticketed for 77 in a 55). If I'm in a two lane road I generally do 5-10 over the speed limit as usual, but if some nigger faggot rides up my ass at 80mph I generally just let off the throttle and coast to the speed limit, and then drop 5mph thereafter if they persist.
And for this exact reason I am considering installing a fucking stupidly bright xenon gas light in the back somehow and have it strobe at the push of a button.

Yep, I go 10 over the posted limit.
The posted limits suck ass in my city, it's 50 km/h (30 mph) in every residential district, they include the highways that go around the town and across the long ass bridge in the middle of the town.... yeah.

Why would OP lie?
If he was lying and this kinda shit was avoidable he would likely just drive in the right lane instead and that would fix his problems.

Since you know all our driving habits don't you?
I typically go 5-10 km/h over the limit and stay in the right lane if there is more than one, and I still get tailgated by obnoxious assholes who are salty that they can't go 30 over. I don't really care how fast you want to drive, but personally I'm not getting a ticket and you can either pass me or sit back there and fucking deal.
I don't know why impatient asshats think anybody is obligated to speed up or pull over for them just because they insist on speeding more.

...

If it's 50km/h you should be doing 50 mph if the conditions warrant it. We don't need to be driving at 50 year old speed limits, It's just a waste of gas.

>I don't know why impatient asshats think anybody is obligated to speed up or pull over for them just because they insist on speeding more.

Because impeding traffic is dangerous and illegal.

Not to mention that giving in to those assholes with their gay little bright light shittery will just encourage their behaviour in the future, I usually just slow right the fuck down and give them hell.

If I'm going at least the speed limit (which I do), no cop or court would ever agree that I'm impeding traffic.

The only times I've ever seen anybody flash lights at another car is when the car in front is poking along in the left lane or is in the left lane and pacing a car on the right so no one can pass.

OP is hiding something here.

it's almost as if people behave differently in different places....
HMMMMMM

>I haven't seen it so it doesn't happen
Oh but of course
All the times then when I was going 5-10 over on a one-lane road and somebody was tailgating me and flashing brights must not have happened.

>How do you deal with tailgaters that flash their brights at you for not speeding?

Move da fuk out the way

Post your location. Let me know when you're driving so I can drive slow. We'll see just what you will do. Pussy.
Don't puss out, I already know where you live.

>How do you deal with tailgaters that flash their brights at you for not speeding?
It's called the Second Amendment

Get out of the way.

I drive a lifted truck though so half the time I can't see the light from someone close behind me. I could let them pass and then get behind them and let my headlight light up their mirrors.

If you're in the right line? Nothing; the left lane is there if they want to pass you.

If you're in the left lane? Change lanes, and get out of their way.

You're gay

You're a fucking tool, go jack off to pictures you took of your brotruck

I have a really bright reversing light on the back of my car. I'm yet to deploy but if anyone tries to blind me from behind I can turn that on.

I just move my rear view mirror so it's not in my face and ignore them. Move it back once I know they're not behind me anymore. Makes me chuckle knowing they're trying to blind me and its not doing shit

>faggot in a tC in front of me is doing 35 in a 55
>give him a couple minutes, maybe he's retarded and doesn't know the speedlimit
>nope, he's retarded
>start to pass him
>he suddenly floors it to try to 'prevent' me from passing him
>Slowly merge into him, calling his bluff, I also don't give a fuck at this point
>he starts tailgating me
>give him the finger and floor it
>he never catches up

Fuck scion ricer wannabe faggots, and fuck niggers going significantly under the speed limit until someone with somewhere to be attempts to pass them. What kind of asshole starts speeding up just to prevent someone who wants to go faster than you to get in front of them?

my car has a blindly bright rear fog light for some reason

There's this Cayenne Turbo S in my area that I meet a couple of times a week.
Always going 40-50km/h over the speedlimit, and practically ram up peoples asses before overtaking.
Always driving smack in the middle of the road, and only stick to his lane moments from hitting oncoming traffic.
I've made it a habit to flip the fucker the bird everytime he overtakes me, and I fucking hope it will piss him off enough in the future that he tries to start shit with me.

Let them pass.

If someone wants to drive fast, I want them so far ahead of me that emergency services have the pavement hosed down by the time I reach the site of their fuck-up.

>drive a Panther body
>no one tailgates/flashes their high beams at night because even with the starburst pattern most people can't tell Marquis taillights from a Crown Vic

>How do you deal with tailgaters that flash their brights at you
I don't have that problem ever, because on the rare days where I find myself driving slow for whatever reason, I'm courteous and I don't get IN THE FUCKING WAY like a FUCKING ASSHOLE.

Save your sanctimony you fucking faggot, nobody proclaimed you a traffic cop, don't try to be one.

Get
The
Fuck
Out
Of
The
Way

How about letting them pass?

Kek, how does it feel to be this butthurt?
Keep sticking up your cucked middle finger and choke back those numale tears.
If and when I come flying right up to someone's bumper, it's usually to inform them, politely, that they should have been looking in their rearview like a courteous driver, and they should get the fuck out of the passing lane. Maybe I'm too close for their precious comfort, but they're too slow for mine, so we're even...
I don't block the passing lane when somebody wants past me, I get the fuck out of the way before they reach me.
I've been brake-checked many many times by angry numale cucks like you, sometimes inches from a bumper, but you faggots never get me, because your cars don't stop as fast, your heart's not in it, and you don't know how to threshold brake or how to watch the road while tailgating...
Hahaha

Why does every ITT think OP is referring to himself sitting in the left lane on a multi lane road? If people are acting like this on two lane roads then they have no excuse

You let them pass, and stop hogging the road?

Nigger Nigger Lol Lol

because that's an easier argument to justify your own shitty behaviour, OP here, I never have the issue in the right lane, and only in the left when making a turn.

Typically I just get out of their way, because I'm not an asshole.

Fucking pussy. Scared faggot.

i don't have this problem because i speed everywhere

Your rear view mirror doesnt have a tingy that dims the reflected light?

You really are desperate aren't you

Either
>get out of the way
>ignore them
>go even slower so they endanger their lives by illegally passing

Get lower where their highs go over the top of your car.

what if you're already in the right lane?

>Hahaha

>slowbro is in front of me doing 25 in 35
>I know this route by heart, there are no fucking cops around at all
>pass him and decide to do 20
>he flips his fucking shit
>mfw he passes me and fucking flies away from me

Flashing highbeams means switch lanes or speed the fuck up.

Just move over and let them go. Legally you can't do shit, just do something to solve the situation.

If I'm passing someone while going the limit, nothing.
If I'm not passing someone then I don't stay in the passing lane.

It's easy, really.

I stopped caring about it as soon as the cops in my city started flashing their lights at people so they could speed with zero consequence.

>55mph speed limit
>cruising down the road in the right lane doing the speed limit
>someone in the left lane is doing 5-ish over
>cop appears and immediately starts riding this guy's ass
>after about 30 seconds of this the cop activates cherries and berries
>swear this dude's about to get pulled over
>he changes lanes and slows down
>cop turns off his lights and continues like nothing happened, except going 15 over
>see cop turn into a fucking McDonalds drive thru just one mile later

>brake check
>hear the squealing of tires behind me

>already doing 30 over the limit
>some faggot in some lowered riced out piece of shit CRX tailgates me
>do exactly this
>watch him eat shit and fuck up his front end on a curb trying to brake and avoid me
COOL VIBRATIONS

wow haha almost killing people is so cool XD

I really hate people like this.

I smashed peoples faces in for this shit
I have kids damn it and these retards are late because they didn't wake up early enough and dieside to piss other people off with their tail gating.

fuck off, and learn to take rules seriously.

laugh at them when they pass me just to get 1 car length ahead (aka my safe following distance) then get stuck behind the slower guy ahead of me while I then flash the shit out of them

Retroreflectors in the back of your vehicle. The more light they throw at you, the more is reflected back at them.

This is basicly what i have done, i have installed a very bright led light at the back of my truck and i use it if a tailgator comes to close. Works better than brake checking

slow down

New Brunswick has fucking vicious drivers, I hate driving there. Nova Scotia is mostly dangerously ignorant and stupid drivers.

back the fuck up or get smacked the fuck up

>wow haha almost killing people is so cool XD
If that almost kills you, you where driving irresponsibly close to the driver in front of you to begin with.

On a motorway I always go in the left line (UK) so that racerboys can easily overtake me. If it's on a normal road then I switch cruise control off and let the car gently slow down until they decide overtake me in their shitty corsas/golfs.
They don't realise my grande punto has 1.9 JTD engine so when they try to overtake I floor it and leave them embarrassed behind me where their fucking place is.
Respect speed limits you fucking cunts.

> take .25 ACP round
> flick it out the sunroof
> watch their window shatter

a spark plug works, too, I've heard

On multi lane roads, this.
No problem getting out of the way here, there's usually tons of room to move.

On 'normal' roads, tough shit. There's zero room to move.
Either go around into oncoming traffic, or chill the fuck out. Either way I'm doing the PSL so you can just deal.

Brake checking is stupid tho. Don't do that.

Flashing highbeams means either "It's okay you go, I'll wait", or "I want to play a game" depending on context.

Downshift

If you're going +/-5 the speed limit, then get out of the overtaking lane. You have all the other lanes to go that speed in But if you're going 10-20+ over the speed limit, fuck'em. Some people are just assholes.
>I smashed peoples faces in for this shit
Yeah, okay kid.

Why do you always assume that this only happens in the overtaking lane, or in a place where there is an overtaking lane?
The vast majority of my driving is on highways with only one lane in each direction, and I frequently get assholes riding my bumper and flipping out because I only go 5-10 over.

>Anime reaction image
>Speeds up while people are trying to pass
Holy fuck you are a faggot.
Pussies like you try to pull this shit with me all the time but I destroy them in my hemi.

Save your sanctimony, cocksuckers like you are just as happy to tailgate in the slow lane.

So you think I should go into the passing lane just so that you can pass without changing lanes?

They're kids who have no validation in their lives except driving like a dumbass in their rusted shitbox.

>t. richfag with a nightmode on his mirrors

I respect honking, and tailgating is a nuisance that is meant to say, "Change lanes because I'm too lazy to move around you/you're too slow for this lane, I drive these roads more than you" so you comply, but if someone has modified their vehicle to create pain and irritation in my eyeballs to make it easier to break the law, that's new levels of criminality. You've got decent grounds for assault and the county court has grounds for public endangerment. In what other context in life is it okay to blind someone in the eyes?

>new levels of criminality
>decent grounds for assault
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Lmao freddy. Uni kids with trucks probably.

> driving the speed limit because the sun is in my eyes and I can't see for shit
> passing lane opens up
> brodozer that was behind me jerks the wheel and swerves at me

You had to wait less than 30 seconds you insecure cocksucker.

Simple.
>Slowly brake
>Let them pass you
>Return the favor

How much tail gating and brake checks is a thing in your country? It sounds like you do that for sport.

You have no reason nor right to overtake me if I'm doing the speed limit.

Some speed limits haven't been updated in 50 years you mongoloid. There is nothing wrong with going 10 over. Don't be a douche.

Send it to your local council for reassessment then.
Seriously though, I rarely ever accelerate on vehicles that overtake me. But if someone is such a cunt to the point where he flashes or honks at me even though I'm not doing anything wrong, then I won't be playing it nice either.
