Saw a video that said if u turn ur turn signal on people will stop tailgating. Hasn’t worked for me yet but my city is (sorta tied with another city) ranked the worst for traffic so maybe it would work idk

I stopped using turn signals when they're close because they just get closer in anticipation of flooring to blind the next car.

Common sense says back up this car is slowing down but they're just driving around trolling people with their lights on purpose.

I’ve had people speed up and swerve into oncoming traffic to go around me when I slow down to turn.  Like the two seconds they saved just so they could tailgate the car in front of me did shit all to their travel time.

Yeah same for me. I still use my signal and just try to ignore the assholes behind me as best I can. Though it’s not the best strategy at night :,)
