i get tailgaited more by SUV's than cars. And these SUV's once they tailgate I'm literally blinded by their headlights and the bastards know it! i think now some people are meaner to me in the road because all they see is a punka$$ in a roadster.

Interesting. I think it depends on where you are too. I never get that. Then again, it's rare that anyone wants to be tailing me...

i dont have too much of a problem here in virginia beach except for all the little ricers that think their 18 shades of primer crx is the fastest thing on the road and that everyone should get out of the master wheelmans way

Yesterday was the 2nd time somebody had rear-ended my car. Both times damage was rather minor, this time is even more minor than last time.

My answer would have to be YES.

Tailgating happens occasionally.. bigger problem for me is those people in those tall trucks and SUV's backing up. I almost got hit twice today at the gas station. I was watching for this woman to back up to leave and she was coming straight at me, so I had to splurt forward and she BARELY missed me. Then she yelled out er out her window. -__-

I've never really had that problem before, even though Houston drivers can be some of the worst.
