My favorite trick to get rid of tailgaters when I'm driving is to slow down instead of speeding up.

The reason why they're doing that is to force you to speed up past the speed limit (or in a situation where you should slow down like on strong curves, or you're on slick roads).

To prevent possible injury or a speeding ticket, simply take your foot off the gas. Don't break check them because if they're tailgating you they don't have enough distance between their front bumper and the back of your car to stop safely.

Just slowly allow your car to lose momentum to slow down. They'll eventually relent and move into the other lane. If you're in a situation where you can not slow down for safety reasons, then move into the next lane if you can and let them pass you. Tailgaters are dangerous because if you need to suddenly stop, you will have them slam right into your bumper because of how close they are.

But easing off the gas is my favorite trick and is recommended by driving instructors, it works like a charm. Never had it fail me.

Just a reminder that turning on your headlights also turns on the little red lights behind your car. So even if you can see, the people behind you can't.

Raining hard? Turn on your headlights

Foggy? Turn on your headlights.

Dark? Turn on your headlights.

You want to be able to see the car in front of you? Let the people behind you see your lights.

I'm gonna post about it every time I see it because it's so dangerous! Driving on the highway at 5 am and a guy doesn't have his lights on, no one could see him.

Also to add, turn your high beams on if you see headlights coming towards you, or a car in front of you. No exceptions.

Tips to Remember for Driving Safely in the Rain

Being behind the wheel with a rain-splattered windshield doesn't have to be a white-knuckled, nerve-racking experience. Brent Praeter, supervising instructor at D&D Driving School, Inc. and member of the Driving School Association of the Americas, both in Kettering, Ohio, offers these tips and techniques for driving in a downpour:

Think. "Many people drive subconsciously, out of habit," says Praeter. "And, when it rains, they often don't adjust their thinking." When conditions are less than ideal, drivers need to stay alert and focused on what's going on around them.

Turn on those headlights. It's the law in all states to turn on headlights when visibility is low, and many states also require having the headlights on when the windshield wipers are in use. Praeter says that well-working wipers and relatively new (not threadbare) tires are must-haves when driving in rain, especially when driving at high speeds on the highway.

Beware of hydroplaning. Hydroplaning is the technical term for what occurs when your tires lose traction with the road due to excess water on top of the road. The result is that your vehicle begins to slide uncontrollably. It's easy to hydroplane: all you need is one-twelfth of an inch of rain on the road and a speed of more than 35 miles per hours. If your tires have extensive wear and tear, you are more highly likely to hydroplane. You can hydroplane even if you are driving a four-wheel drive car, SUV, or truck.

If you start to hydroplane, let off the accelerator (gas pedal) slowly, and steer straight until you regain control. If your car starts to spin, turn your wheel in the direction that the vehicle is spinning, slowly. Do not turn your wheel against the direction it has begun to spin. Do not jerk the wheel sharply in one direction or the other, as you could flip your car due to over correction. Consider taking a driving course through your local DMV to learn how to drive safer on wet roads and better avoid hydroplaning.  

Turn off cruise control. Ironically, on rain- or snow- slick surfaces, cruise control may cause you to lose control. You might think it'll help you stay at one steady speed, but if you hydroplane while you're in cruise control, your car will actually go faster.

Slow down. "Speed limit signs are designed for ideal conditions,” says Praeter, “which means driving when you have little traffic and good visibility." That's hardly the environment you're driving in when it's raining. So, let up on the accelerator and allow more time to get to your destination.

Be extra cautious with merging lanes. Motorists should drive defensively and take precautions when passing vehicles to prevent merging collisions.

Driving Safety Tip

If you are waiting to turn left onto a side road or something, don’t turn your steering wheel until you actually go to make the turn. You want to keep your wheels straight while you’re sitting there waiting because if someone hits you from behind while you are stopped, you want your car to go straight ahead. If you wait with your wheels already turned and someone hits you, you’ll get pushed into oncoming traffic, which is a million times more dangerous for everyone involved.
