The tailgating in Montreal is getting really bad.
I get tailgated in the slow lane going faster than people in the fast lane sometimes.
If I am stopping I want to maintain space in front of me, I don't want someone creeping up on my rear with a "slowing" light.
People would say, "oh, you were sloooowing, not stopping, you then jammed on the brakes with no warning..."
Exactly.....The great American public would screw it up the first time they could. Its hard enough now to keep the idiots off your bumper.
