I'm sure you're all really nice people. Some of you are even my friends. I am sure the four cars that hit me last September contained really nice people, too.

But the number of rear-end accidents go up, and people will stop rather than run the light, then the tailgaters will rear-end them.
One More Reason Not To TailGate!!!

I hate tailgaters too! My grandfather used to say something that has always stuck with me and now with Tessa only a couple of years away from driving I've been telling her what he said too. It's pretty simple but it has made me a better driver for it. He said, "you have to drive your car and everyone else's car at the same time." As I am driving I am constantly watching and "driving everyone else's car" at the same time so I can always be ready...if that's possible.
