Quincy: But when I watch racing on tv I'm told of the advantages of drafting. I'll go faster and save fuel if I tailgate!
I hate tailgaters too, and I sometimes wonder if the populartiy of NASCAR has led to an increase in the practice.
Chris:
Somewhat off topic but I had an encouter with a couple of yahoos like that just recently. It was at night on a state highway bordered by national forest with plenty of deer along the route. They had more than enough room to maintain a decent interval from one another but they chose the "drafting" method and chose to do so at night on a dark highway and at a fairly high rate of speed. Needless to say I let the idiots get by me asap and I got home in one piece and wondered if they did as well.
