Wish it were so in So Cal. Some will pullover but they are very few. I actually found the best place for cagers pulling over to let the bike pass was in Washington State when me and a few buddies were on a western states tour for 2 weeks.

Let's be clear. The definition of slow in this case is slower than her.

And yeah she should not have been tailgating but why would you even want to bother getting involved with her and her driving habits and her life by trying to teach a lesson? What is the possible upside vs. the possible downside?

OK, so you slam on your brakes and now after a near-accident she knows to follow no less than a mile behind you. Did you win?

OK, so you slam on the brakes and she careens into a ditch and both her and her ailing friend (who she was racing to get to) die. Did you win?

How do you know why she was speeding? Point being, it shouldn't matter; it is always better to give way because you don't know why they're doing what they're doing and don't need to get involved by passing roadway judgment.

I agree. I usually get out of the way because I'd want someone to do the same for me. I wouldn't want to cause anyone to get into a crash for a stupid reason like tailgating.

I dont see the point of you guys racing your evo against a lower-powered car like a honda. If you know your opponent's car is slow theres no point in racing and wasting your gas. Just sit back and relax. Cruise Baby!!

Just cuz ur in an Evo doesn't mean you own the road. Hehe, waiting for the first Civic owner to post up his Evo kill.
