i'm in the right lane going about 65, someone is in the same lane behind me going faster, instead of passing way far back they get right up on my rear bumper and than they make the lane change to go around me.
when people do this to me i will get back at them...
hit the breaks, do the same to you or box you in, i got notin' to lose.

When that driver rides your bumper that's one stupid driver on the road but when you hit your breaks now there are two stupid drivers on the road.
I hate it when people ride my bumper but I just slow down until they finally pass me.
You don't fix stupid by being equally stupid. Brake checking is not only incredibly stupid, it's illegal.
Hi GarageLogic--
I can't imagine a muni court judge in the entire country that would buy your argument that you rear-ended the car in front because he slammed on his brakes. Since it boils down to he-said/she-said, you're going to be the one that has to prove that the car in front slammed on his brakes for no reason - and that's nearly impossible to do.
Since there's oh, about a million legitimate reasons to slam on the brakes.
You'll get cited for "failure to maintain adequate following distance" every time.
That said, I'm not endorsing brake checking - although I do tap on the brakes a bit to ward off tailgaters.
