That would work for most user. What would work better is to just move to a slower lane. When people do that to me, I just gun it, pass that person and get into their lane, then slow down below the speed limit just the piss them off.
Lovely. Just the kind of punkass idiot I want to be sharing the road with.
Hopefully one of the people whom you brake-check will either not react and rear-end you, or follow you home and beat the living snot out of you.
If someone tailgates me in the passing lane, I’ll move over, and I generally keep right when not passing anyway. If someone does it on a 2 lane road but refuses to pass, or on the right lane of a freeway, I’ll try to detach them. Brake checking isn’t cool, but slowing down and speeding up slightly isn’t dangerous, but still gets the point across.
Lastly, I’m from NYC. Driving is a competitive blood sport here, but at the same time, brake checking and road rage aren’t all that common here. Relax and be a good sport about things. How can San Diego drivers be so angry in such a lovely place? Paradox.
