Tailgaters are among the top three nuisances on our roads today. The biggest nuisances are the drivers of the F-150 type trucks who stop within inches of your rear bumper. Like, what're ya doin', Jethro, tryin'to see what I'm playin' in my cd player ?. Back off, aholes, your're supposed to be able to se my rear tires when you're stopped behind me. All the Jethros out there are now saying 'wha ' ??.

  In response to the previous comment regarding "tailgaters", I happend to be a witness to this accident, and in this particular case, the accident was caused by the lack of signage to indicate there was an upcoming "bump". Don't get me wrong, I don't disagree at all about the issue of others driving too close. Having two young children in the backseat of my vehicle makes me quite nervous when on the roads. It isn't me that I'm afraid of, it's the other drivers - too close, and very likely on the phone and/or texting.
