If you find yourself being tailgated, it’s important to stay calm and avoid abrupt movements. You can encourage the tailgater to pass by maintaining a steady speed that is legal, but not exceeding the limit, and by allowing extra space in front of your vehicle. If it's safe and possible, change lanes to let the tailgater go ahead. Always prioritize safety and avoid engaging in aggressive behavior.
What else can I help you with?
What your speed should encourage a tailgater to pass?
If you're driving at or above the speed limit and a tailgater is closely following you, it's generally best to maintain your speed and stay in your lane until it's safe to let them pass. However, if you're driving slower than the speed limit, you should consider moving to a different lane or pulling over when it’s safe to do so, allowing the tailgater to pass. Safety is paramount, so always prioritize your own driving and the safety of others on the road.
What to do if car is tailgating you?

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 someone is following you too closely what is the best way to lose a tailgater?

Gradually reduce your speed to encourage them to pass, but do so safely and without causing a hazard. If safe, change lanes or make a turn when possible to allow them to overtake you. Always prioritize safety and avoid aggressive driving.
