The first chance you get slow down and allow the car to pass you. first i turn my windshield washer on and hold it till he gets the hint.he will be soaked with your excess fluid.but i am a ball breaker,if you think he has a screw loose, get out of the way safly take his plate,model,color and report him as a aggressive,road rage driver that is swaying on the highway.troopers will have a ball with him,and chances are there are plenty of violations on his record anyway,especially if you have your family in the car, you have to think of their safety and drop the macho crap

Drivers being tailgated are advised to?
lightly tap your brakes
How do you know if you are tailgating or being tailgated?
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
If you're being tailgated how many seconds gap should be between you and the car ahead of you?
2 seconds is the safe distance.
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.
What should you do if you're being tailgated?
Drive safe and follow the rules. Drive to the nearest police station if you know where it is, or cal 9-1-1. Do not break the law or show off.
Can you sue for emotional damages a month ago a truck that belongs to an international company rearended you and now anxious to drive to the point of shaking and crying when a car tailgated you today?
If you exchanged insurance and have a valid claim plus evidence of said claim, then yes you could.
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.
What should you do if you are being tailgated?
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.

I was being tailgated by someone and I hit my brakes and they hit me however I got the ticket. A while ago someone cut me off and hit their brakes I got a ticket. Why did I get the ticket both times?
Just because you got the ticket doesn't mean you are at fault. When it goes to court, explain to the judge the circumstances and your actions. The other driver should have been at fault for following too closely, and your decision to tap the brakes was the correct one in my opinion. There are many circumstances that will influence this, like if you slammed on your brakes and did not tap them. However I got a ticket for failure to signal while braking and the driver behind me didn't get a ticket for failure to maintain safe driving distance
