    Brake checking is not enough these days.

    Picture below shows the damage the bus did on this ppv.

    If the vehicle behind is tailgating you, just let him pass.

    Don't ever perform a brake-check. The stupidity of one tailgater is not worth his passengers' life, your life or whoever is with you in your vehicle.

    i don't know why we call them bumpers.
    nobody wants to use them for bumping anything.

    I was referring to tailgating at highway speeds. Provincial buses, especially, loves to play tango with the car in front.

    in the highway, i practice the 3 second or 4 second rule.
    alas, 'tis all the space an overtaker needs, to overtake and swerve in front of me.

    Me too, sarap mag drive and makadating sa pupuntahan na wala aberya. Sila na ang mabibilis.

    Well akala lang ng iba ay magagaling at mabibilis sila mag drive kase nakaka singit ng singit, you could say that if hindi mo naaaffect yung speed ng other motorists, if affected sila then pinagbibigyan ka lang nila at minumura probably.

    When tailing a vehicle with a tow hitch, do you guys take more caution or treat it as any other vehicle in the road?

    I think of it as a longer vehicle, especially in stop and go traffic. Otherwise, you may just have that hitch sitting inside your front bumper.

    i stay away farther. it's not easy to estimate just how long that sungay is.
    there should be a law about these appendages-cum-ramming-rods.
