Tailgaters suck, as do the people that hang in the left lane (the reason I won't let my wife drive during our trips to the cottage). What also bothers me are the people that can't pay attention enough to tell if I am slowing down or not, without the aid of brake lights.
I drive a 5speed, so I gear down as I get closer to the stop. As a result, my brakelights don't come on, but it's not like my speed goes from whatever-to-naught in the space of 5 seconds. A couple weeks ago a farmer in a truck behind me wasn't paying attention and damn near took off my bumper. Still, he decided it was my fault for not using my brakes. Seriously, is it that difficult to figure out if the car in front of you is moving slower than you are? Eeesh.
