This is the one action that people do on the road that bugs the crap out of me. I even have a bumper sticker on my car that warns them, I may stop at any time and with little notice.
I think people do it because they don't think anything can happen to them. They feel like the car makes them invincible or something. Also, in this day and age, people are only concerned with themselves and they believe they can handle it. (The self centered-ness is shown constantly by road rage, people cutting others off, and loudly blowing their horn at the most minute infractions)

Because generally in bad weather people tend to drive more slowly, and when traffic is moving more slowly, it bunches up thus creating tailgating.

Because you are probably going WAY to slow for the road conditions... I absolutely hate people that drive way under the speed limit when it's raining out or a little amount of fog. I have been rear ended because someone thought it was safe to drive 25 in a 45 when it was raining... People that drive slow are the hazards in those conditions!

because just because of some snow people think it's the end of the world.
Plus if you drive slow, get the heck out of the left lane.

the same reason they tailgate when the weather is good. they don't pay attention to what they're doing

Lack of awareness, or just plain stupidity.

To get a better view of what they are going to crash into. :-)
