WHAT IS TAILGATING?
When one vehicle drives closely behind another vehicle,
it's called tailgating. It causes problems for both cars.
THE DANGERS
The chasing vehicle driver is
at the risk of colliding with
the vehicle being chased
Tailgating leaves drivers
with little time to stop
Last but not the least, other passenger
vehicles and passerby are also at risk of
being hit by either of the two vehicles.
COMMERCIAL
TRAILER TRUCKS
Tailgating behind large trailer trucks can be
risky. Those trucks have too many blind spots,
and that aggravates the risk.

HOW TO AVOID
A TAILGATER
To avoid a tailgater, you need to follow cer-
tain tips. Such tips include slowing down
and moving out of the way, lane changing,
moving the vehicle to an alternate route, etc.
A thorough discussion of each single
tip is required to avoid tailgating
MOVING OUT
OF THE WAY
Don't move out hastily. Wait for opportunities,
and before moving out, slow down your vehicle.
The purpose of moving out is to allow the vehicle
on the back to pass safely.
CHANGING LANES
Faster traffic often invites problems for
large trucks because of blind spots.
Change to outer lanes from the inner
lanes because traffic moves slowly there.
ALTERNATE LANES
Consider alternative lanes if you are able
to allow more distance between you and
the cars in front or behind you.
