I agree, I do the Brisbane to Sunny Coast trip every weekend and I can't believe how many tailgaters I see or experience. People seem to forget the average reaction rate to sudden braking from a car ahead is 0.7 seconds, then account for how long it takes to brake hard and slow down/bring car to a stop. That's a lot of metres if you're hurling along at 100-120km/h. Worse in the rain too!

People also love to NOT slow down in 80km/h roadworks zones too and zip right up to the backs of cars observing the limit.

My pet peeve is how many people (and especially silver, white and charcoal cars) who don't turn their lights on in the rain. You're practically invisible you dicks!

EDIT: I'm actually a left hand undertaker of sorts because it shits me on a 3 lane highway people sit in the middle lane for no reason and in some cases doing way under the limit. I keep left always so I may pass on left if anything to prove a point. Middle laners clog traffic
