One day going to work (6am Sunday no traffic) a woman gets on behind me, speeds up until she is less than a car off my bumper and stays there for the next 10miles, I exit the x-way as she continues to tailgate me. After speeding up/slowing down several times she refused to move, now it's been almost 20miles of no traffic 4 lane road and she's still so close she could count my hair follicles so I checked my brakes (better to be safe right?). Now she passes me like I did something wrong.

Drive yourself or eat my bumper!!!

PS. to have fun with these types while in the Porsche, on the exchange ramps I go as fast as possible and watch them as they struggle to keep from hitting the wall.
I had a dumbass in a pickup follow me in my 914 as I took an off ramp. It was a downhill decreasing radius corner. I used that off ramp almost every day. I did not hit the brakes just a downshift and a 9/10 corner. He drove right off the road and smashed into the fence. The idiot had been tailgating me for over a mile. He had opportunity to go around but he preferred to draft me. I taught the lesson but I suspect he did not lean much from it.
