I may be in the minority here, but I say that tapping, hitting or slamming on the brakes is just as bad, if not worse than the act of tailgating in the first place. If there is no real reason for hitting the brakes other than to piss off the tailgater, then you are at fault for the resulting accident. I know that it couldn't be proven that the brakes were hit intentionally, but seriously, isn't it better to just change lanes and let the asshole go along his/her merry way than to get into an accident, or fight, or whatever?
