This works nice during the daytime on tailgaters...
when they are just riding as close to you as they can - just turn on your headlights. Reaction time doesn't really differentiate between these and brake lights. If they are stupid enough to tailgate, they are usually stupid enough to lock 'em up...
This solves all of the problems:
1) You have done nothing wrong, malicious, reckless or illegal,
2) If an accident ensues - it is 100% the tailgaters fault,
3) You got what you wanted (more space) with no guilt,
4) Best of all, you did nothing to compromise your safety or that of another person.
has worked for me a few times.
To those of you who say 'well, you are intentionally endangering the safety of another person...'
I say, tell me what is more dangerous - simply pulling my headlights on or riding an inch off of someones bumper doing 70 mph? That answers your question.
