Haha.you passed a Commodore.now tell the truth.he was parked at the time, and the only reason why you were tailgated is that it was one lane and you were doing 80kms in a 100 zone.lol.

Good man you can pass me whenever you can catch me lol To the op how fast where you going when you passed the car and did you keep up that speed or did you pass and then slow down.Truck drivers get that all the time pass me because Im a truck that they think is going slow then hold me up very frustrating

if your getting tailgated just rip the handbrake. they dont see any brake lights but get up on your arse REAL quick, if they dont hit you (which is their fault if they do) they normally crap themselves and stay back abit.

When someone shunts you while youre being smart with your handbrake and insurance and police investigate your vehicle you may be charged with dangerous driving causing an accident when its found you slowed dramaticly without stop lights and yes its easy to prove

they can tell if your lights were "in use" at the stage of an accident, fair enough but how do you prove they werent!

not really, if someone goe's up the rearend of your car, and the assessor checks the car and comes back with no brake lights, how can they determin that you did 'rip the handbrake'

The skid marks at the scene and the fack that your tyres will have a flat spot on them
