Or is it just certain places? It seems to be nearly every person where I live, but in York they leave the proper gap.

try this next time somebody tailgates you flick your lights on as they are so far up your ar se they can not tell if its your brake lights or main lights so they back off they may give you a blast on the horn but it works every time

Only the bad ones.
Here in California, sometimes it's bumper to bumper at 55 mph, because there isn't enough room for there to be a proper gap. Too much traffic through downtown Los Angeles freeways any time night or day.

I'm in the Canaries in Spain where they overtake on blind bends so tailgateing is a minor irritant. Here they either drive a 5 mph on a perfectly straight road or about 100 on a double bend. I think it's pretty universal now - it seems to be saying 'I'm more important than yow, and I have to get to the next place ahead of yow' ... and, yes, I've got more money than yow cos my car goes faster.

Vegan at a tailgate social gathering is like bringing your mom to the promenade. With that out, attempt this recipe to warmth up your corn: Its like a Mexican highway Corn. (i'm no longer vegan, so I exhibit regret ahead if lots of the ingrediants circulate against your grain because of fact i don't understand any extra desirable) Make this in the previous you go away your place. 2 cups bitter cream a million/4 cup mayo (or maybe if vegans replace) a million/4 decrease chopped cilantro blend all of it up in a bowl and take it with you. Shuck and wash your uncooked corn and placed it straight away on the grill, you're finding to stripe it brown of black, quarter turns approximately each and every 4 minutes, reckoning on how warm the grill is. do no longer burn it! that's the exciting and messy area. while the corn is finished unfold the cream blend on the corn, dirt it with chili powder, sparkling graded Parmesan cheese and a squirt of lemon.

The worst recent experience I had was outside Leeds on the M62 A car joined from the slip road slotted himself beween me and the car in front missing us both by what felt like the widrg of a coat of paint. He then as he got ahead swopped between the centre and overtaking lanes missing other cars by seemingly inches before leavin gthe motorway at the next exit. The point i am making is that he tail gated the whole way

I live in Alaska and most people don't tailgate, but that may be because we have ice on the road most of the year.

Here in Denver Colorado they follow so close you can see
their faces in rear view mirror
And they latch on to the back of your car and really tailgate
seriously

If you're a slow driver, yes, you are going to get tailgated. Try moving over to the slow lane.

It is because you drive like a wuss
try a bit of motor racing, that is tailgating with tons of adrenilin.
I really push sluggish drivers, nothing like seeing a huge radiator grill in their rear veiw mirror to get them to either drive at a sensible speed or get out of the way.
