tailgating me so close and flashing your headlights at me. I have rear view and wing mirrors. I know you are there and I promise I WILL move over when there is a break in the traffic to my right. And yes, this is addressed to all you Land Cruiser drivers!

so I always stay in the middle of the road so ANY VEHICLE can overtake my car anytime they want. I keep my speed within the limit and that's that.

Sometimes, if these crazy drivers honk or flash their lights at me, I put the hazard lights on. :-P

hoot or flash, just smile and wave at them. The stupid expression on their faces will make you laugh.

iGNORE and be patience, give a way whenever possible.If someone had heard of one who shot the other because he didnt gave a way after flashing him? I dont want to steal the thread to tell the whole story. but this is a real story happened here in Qatar. The family of the deceased doesnt want to accept the blood money, you give the climax of the story...

I learnt a lesson from this one, so if someone flashes, i just ignore it and find way to give him the way. I learned patience in this scenario, i just ignore the one tailgating, because i want to live for my children...

So please, just ignore and drive calmly as you can...

The best reaction I have found to be quite effective is to ignore the flashing by turning your rearview mirror down for the time and if the land cruiser is tailgating slow down slightly they will find another way around.

Dont risk your life for the few stupid people who wat to break the land speed record from roundabout to roundabout or from robot to robot
