Dealing With Tailgaters: My Close Call on a Country Road

Last week, I was driving down a winding rural road when a guy started tailgating me, flashing his brights and riding way too close. Eventually, he sped past me in frustration. Not even a minute later, a deer darted out in front of my car. I had to slam on the brakes—if that guy was still behind me, we both could’ve been in a serious accident. This made me realize how important it is to stay calm and prioritize safety, even when others are impatient. If someone’s tailgating you, don’t let them pressure you into speeding. Let them pass when it’s safe, and keep your focus on the road. Have you ever had a similar experience? Share your story below! #RoadSafety #StayCalm #DrivingTips #DefensiveDriving #Cars
