Ive heard of people doing electrical work on their cars, adding a brakelight switch so they can activate the breaklights without touching the breaks. Very illegal but problably very affective against tailgaters.

I had an older model Jeep Cherokee with the back windshield washer flipped so it sprayed water up, and straight back...

If someone got to close, I just hit the water and sprayed their windshield. It was awesome!

I havent checked my Z yet to see if the washer clip can be reversed as easily as it was on my jeep....

I may do it if it is due to the fact that I was rear ended after having the car for just 2 weeks! 3200 in damage...

I dont like the dry rubbing on the back windshield, but some rainx may help that out....

Excellent story!

I have to say, I read these kind of stories before I got my Z -- can't believe how true it is. Yesterday, I had a punk a** HS kid in an early 90s 4-door civic with a coffe-can muffler ride my *** in hardcore morning rush-hour traffic. He kept slowing down and then riding up on me. Why?! Even if I wanted to race him, there was nowhere to go.

On a related note, I had an S-10 pickup when I was in High School. I could just break into the gate for reverse enough to trigger the backup lights without touching the gear itself. It was pretty effective at freaking people out.

Big problem is - there are so many idiots with guns - someone might just blast you through the rear window. It isnt worth the chance. Noone says you have to be sane to get a drivers license!

Hey - I like that one - odds of a cop detecting it would be almost nil . I usually do the crawl if I get tired of someone tailgating - they finally give up and pass.

Default Tailgater

Try this:

Tap the brakes while keeping your foot on the gas and maintaining the same speed.

Simultaneously lurch forward violently in the front seat.

Look in rear view to get instant satisfaction.

I had a Reverse Light switch that was rigged up. If I ever got to a complete stop (at a stop sign or intersection, I'd flip the switch, look at the guy behind me start to sweat, the pull off forward with the reverse lights on.)



I also have an older Jeep Cherokee. I bought it used and one day needed to clean the back window. I hit the button and couldn't figure out why the window wasn't getting wet. I hot the button again and again... It didn't take THAT long to see I was spraying the guy behind me... I'm glad I'm not the only one with a Jeep that likes to spray the car BEHIND me.
