It depends on the situation. If you are in the left lane of a multi lane highway then you should move to the right lane and let the faster vehicles pass safely. If you are in the right lane on a two lane road then you should slow down enough so as to allow the tailgating vehicle to safely pass you on the left. Never make any gestures or actions that display your possible aggrivation with the other driver. This is road rage and will only escallate the situation. Let them pass. If they want to be first on scene at their own accident then let them and don't join them.

You're tailgating if you're way too close to the car in front of you and you're being tailgated if ther car behind you flashes their lights at you as a sing for you to get out of the way for being too slow. They might even bump you

Is it recommended that if you're being tailgated you keep a second gap between you and the car ahead of you?
Yes. But if you are being tailgated there is little you can do to ensure the car behind you is the appropriate distance. If you slow down enough, the gap between you and the car ahead of you may encourage the vehicle behind to pass you and move into that empty spot in front of you.
When driving in the fast lane if you are tailgated the best thing to do is?
Move out of the way.
When being tailgated should you speed up or slow down?
My view is that it's best to slow right down so the tailgater ends up having to back off or they'll end up going so slowly they'll be at a stop. It's always seemed a bad plan to get faster and faster til you lose them, as obviously there really is no way of knowing how fast you're going to end up going. And if the tailgater speeds up with you, if they do end up crashing into you, at a high speed this will do a lot of damage.
If you are being passed you should?
When you are being passed you should stay in your lane and maintain your speed.
