I don't advise stopping your car on the ramp of an expressway and getting out of your car. you could get hit by another car or possibly get an ass whooping.

it happens to me too, all day todayin fact. the best thing to do is just let them go all though you want to out run them but the cops tend to not care if they are tailgating or not. but i am guilty of pulling away if it looks clear

Yup exactly what I do. Pisses me off, especially when there is traffic all in front of me. I like keeping a good distance in front of me and try to make sure the person behind me does as well. I know a lot of those cars aren't stopping as fast as me.

Totally off topic, but those people who creep up 4 inches from your bumper not paying attention as they dig in their wallet in the drive through lines... Ugh I just wanna....!

Same here in San Diego. People's expectation of Camaro's makes them think we're suppose to drive like maniacs all the time. I just don't wanna pay for tickets, you know?

If they keep on me and won't pass, I just wash my windshield.... Of course, only when I have the top up. If I have the top down, I just let off the gas..

Great movie stuff but that's an excellent way to get shot or hit by a car. I did some dumb things earlier in life, like stopping my car, pulling up 20 feet, dropping it into reverse and ramming the car behind me that had moments before hit me, and the driver had hit me very much on purpose, and for a bad reason (I wouldn't pass a funeral procession, he was in a hurry; I had recently buried some friends before they reached 27 years old, so disrespecting a funeral was-and is- low on my list of cool. He got frustrated and decided to actually hit my car from behind to hurry me up. Should have made me realize the guy was nuts). Then I got out to confront the guy. And as I did it, he reached into his coat. I had to get up close so whatever he was getting...couldn't be gotten. We chatted. Ended up shaking hands. Bizarre.

The entire thing was stupid. From hitting me on purpose to me reacting the way I did. Sometimes we all have a final straw and boy was that mine that day but realistically I was probably going to be shot. And realistically it was probably self defense.

So be smarter than me. Sure, we're all tough guys. Doesn't stop a bullet.

I obviously won't resort to that guys.

I just thought it was a funny video that needed to be seen.
