Driving
After the fender bender (?) of last month, Jerry & I decided to sign up for the AARP driver refresher course. It started today. Most of the info I learned at 16 is still valid except for the "do not tap your brakes if someone is following too closely". Seems to do so now could lead to a ticket because it is viewed as and "aggresive" move. What????? I'm getting sniffed in the tailpipe by some jerk and I can't signal him to back off? The laws that protect the criminal are insane.

What do they have to say about driving slowly (not obnoxiously so) when being followed too closely? Tapping the brakes does seem provoking, but driving slowly could be interpreted as being aloof. How do they suggest to deal with tail-gaiters?
They say to let the tail sniffer get around you. Get out of his way. Especially Semi-trucks.
