don't you hate those damn talegaters?


well the other day I finally figured out that the small little window in the back the Ford Ranger is for.

Weapons required:

1Pebbles and other little stones, nothing bigger than a cubic centimeter.

2Paintball gun

3eggs

4Feathers.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now the best thing to have in the back of the truck is a somewhat small pile of dirt and small rocks, they usually hit the guys windshield and they back off. If that doesn't work have the guy in the back open up and back window and start checking small pebbles out. Make sure it doesn't look obivous, if you don't have the back license plate on though throw a human corpse for all I care. Now these usually dent the windshield and people normally back off but somtimes you get the maniacs. Start throwing what ever you got, the paintball gun is espically fun here

Lets say your not the agressive type
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Slow down a bit and pull to the side and let him pass and then ride his ass. THEY HATE IT! they usually try to speed away but never let them. This only works well on 2 lane smaller roads.

The Highway!
--------------------------------------------------------------------
If your dealing with one of those assholes that just keeps changing lanes and rides everyones ass change with him! It drives me absolutely insane! Sometimes other people start to notice what your doing and make it specifically difficult for the guy trying to switch lanes cuz he's riding you. Its funny!



I have not tested all of these things but I can assure you I have some I have done the pebbles thing and the dirt in the back but I just recently got the idea for the bigger items.

by following these guidlines you can make the road a safer place for all Freedom loving people

*JOKING I AM NOT INSANE... well I might be

I used to have to commute to DC every day (hour and a half drive both ways).

On 50 and 495 (the Beltway) you could meet some real ass holes.

Ok, so im in the fast lane, going as fast as the guy in front of me, whos going as fast as the guy in front of him, etc, etc, etc. Were all going like 75mph which is pretty good for a 55mph zone, so no one should be complaining.

Anyway theirs this Bronco behind me and its like RIGHT on my fucking ass. Really pissing me off.

So what do i do? I slam on the fuckin brakes for a half second.

The Bronco behind me panics and swerves onto the side strip to avoid hitting the back of me (if he had, hed of had to pay the insurance).

He recovers pretty quickly and catches back up to me. Just to make sure he knows i did it on purpose I raise my hand through the moonroof, give him the middle finger, and lightly double tap the breaks.

Well Mr Jack-ass Bronco boy didnt think that was funny. So the einstein gets on my ass AGAIN and this time tries to pass me.

So i speed up and keep pace with him until meeting with a pair of cars going the same speed covering the other 2 lanes. I get even with them and the Bronco pulls back behind me, thinking im gonna pass the 2 cars then he can pass me. Nope.

Hes tailgating me again, so I slam on the breaks again. This time he was ready and he slammed his breaks too. I took it down to about 30mph, then sped off again to those 2 cars.

Did that 2 more times before he finally stopped riding my ass. Then i caught back up to the line of cars i had been previously trailing and everything was cool.

Caution: Never tailgate in my neck of the Pennsylvania woods(south of Pittsburgh). Everyone around here can go from zero to pissed in 3.2 seconds.

Not actual pic! If you want one, YOU go outside while it is pouring down rain this morning and get one yourself!

What you do is slow way the hell down until they start to pass you. Let them get in the left lane (obviously on a 2 lane highway). Once they are in that lane, match their speed so they can't reenter. Ever. They slow down, you slow down. They speed up, you speed up. People aren't in such a hurry when you almost get them killed.

The best thing to do is to slow down....waaaaaaaaaay the hell down....then let them attempt to pass you.

I love doing stuff to asshole drivers. Flaring the brights on all the time behind someone who was doing it to you is the best.

To someone who is driving too slow and you can't pass, start swerving back and forth. Get to know their driver side mirror VERY well.
