That ***** doesn't work with me and the 12y.o. beater. I have all the right to defend my self on the sidewalk and road from agression.
brake checking makes you as bad as the tailgater.

the gradual let off of the gas is a better solution. Doing a brake check may get you shot or someone killed sometime.
