>bare ass road with 3 cars on it
>state trooper, me, and a Jetta
>Jetta was a prick for like 20 minutes tailgating niggas
>trooper was following me, i didn't realize it was a cop and did like 10 over the limit
>he decides to tail the Jetta for the next 10 miles
>suddenly Jetta brake checks him
>disco lights
Stop tailgating and brake checking /o/, even cops think you're dicks.

Brake checking is a result of tailgating.
Tailgaters are the only dicks here

Normally i'd agree but the Jetta was tailgating people going the speed limit on previous roads.
It's clear to me the cop was trying to be a dick to a dick.

It's a defense mechanism.
Most of the time it works and the douchebag backs off.

If you weren't doing 60 in a 45 the cop wouldn't be tailgating you in the first place. It's imporant to be able to figure out fleet car headlights.

defense mechanisms are involuntary and unconscious. if you can't voluntarily control your brake pedal then get the fuck off the road.

No they aren't. Brake checking them and forcing them to back off is better than doing nothing and then having him smash into you if you actually have to hit the brakes.

I'm not OP, fuckhead

>I'm not OP, fuckhead
I know, I am. I'm just saying in general cops tailgate you when they're about to pull you over or are trying to get you to break the speed limit.
>>14054936
>no they aren't
i forgot that people can be this stupid
have fun explaining to your insurance company that you voluntarily endangered the life of the person behind you, then.

Why don't you maintain a safe following distance to the car ahead of you so you have enough time to brake without the guy behind you plowing through
>>14054941
They do that when they are profiling too.
>someone tailing gating me
>keep foot on the throttle and blip brake lights
>person behind me goes into full panic mode
>almost does a complete stop
Shit's fucking funny like that.
>>14054911
>risking an accident because someone is being a douchebag
You just slow down and you keep slowing down until they fuck off. That's the proper response to a tailgater as it's the equally douchey thing to do
>someone tailgates me
>let off the accelerator
>tailgater moves to the left lane and keeps going
Works every time. There is no need to brake check and possibly inconvenience yourself.
>tailgating slow retards doing 65 in the left lane of a 70
>brake checking me instead of moving over to the normie lane
>have very soft suspension
>twingo
>someone is tailgating me while i am passing some car
>hit the brake
>the car is leaning forward
>tailgaiter panic floor the brake ear tire screeching
>i only slowed doing 5 kph
>finish passing cruising in to right lane
>tailgaiter go by my side angry as fuck
>laught at them with my friend
>they go in front of me
>check for passing
>pass them when they brake check me
