Re: Shouty men...

"if you are tailgating and I cannot let you pass then yes. To protect myself and my property from your bad driving I will slow down. If necessary I will stop. That is a standard part of prudent driving - drive to the conditions and stop if you have to."

I can't believe how many of you lot seem to think that provoking a tailgater by slowing down somehow defuses the situation ... and worse, you also seem to think that stopping and thus inviting a face-to-face physical altercation is a good idea! I'll bet you a plugged nickle that if you ask your local law enforcement, they will give the same advice that I have.

"I realise that your countryfolk cherish the right to murder people over even small imagined slights, but the rest of the world doesn't live like that."

ODFO, prat. road rage in New Zealand exists, and you know it.
