  • I feel the ones who cut in front of you into your reaction space are worse, I can get tailgaters off my tail by using the sudden random braking technique but you can't do much about people who cut into your space.
  • Those that cut in at the last moment. There is an easy way to deal with tailgaters. Lightly push down on the brake pedal with your left foot so that your brake light is on, even while driving. It freaks them out, because they have lost the only indicator that will tell them when you are going to stop and they will pull back or change lanes. It's always worked for me. Tailgates move on.
  • Those who cut you off. I'm always worried they are going to clip my left quarter panel/bumper. Then I have to back off to keep room to stop when they do. I often give them the horn and get that middle finger wave from them.
  • In today's world the art of driving has become so routine that many drivers forget there are other drivers on the road. This casual approach to a serious endeavor leaves many drivers visiting their proctologists in an effort to locate their heads.
  • One is just as bad as the other. But the worse thing to me is people talking on cell phones and not watching what they are doing, thinking they are the only ones on the road.
