Default Best way to deal with tailgaters!!!!

okay well we all hate tailgaters right?

all you gotta do is take off the hose going from your back hatch to the wiper blade and it shoots a good 10 feet back.

ive already got some people and they drive around and flick me off and i dont think it helped when i was laughing at them lol

ill try and get some pics

Tossing a handful of pennies out the window will make them back off too.

When I was younger I used to aim the nozzle to shoot over the windshield too, but I also peed in the wiper resevoir.
I was youunger and dumber back then.

I used to have a Honda that would spew the thickest, blackest cloud of smoke when revved up. When I had a tailgater, I would put it in neutral and mat the gas, they always backed off.

Thread Closed....

if they tail gate, continue your path of travel or pull of to the side of the road.

road rage can you get you a careless driving ticket or worse. It can also lead to many accidents which I have seen before. (almost involved in one from a guy break checking someone else)
