50/50

It is really the jackass who decided to change lanes where there wasn't any space that are the worst. Tailgating is just the consequence to the jackasses behavior.

As for CDL drivers who tailgate, it's men.
As for regular passenger vehicle drivers, it's men. Women do tailgate but men driver will ride up to where you can see their nose hairs.

the only reason I voted women was because every female tailgater I've seen was distracted with something, where half of the male tailgaters aren't

...then please explain the people that ride my ass when I'm in the right lane, and there is NOBODY in the left lane of the road at all? If they wanted to pass...they could. If they wanted to go faster.....they could. They are tailgating because they have no common sense, and they thing a 10ft following distance at 75mph is acceptable.

If you have a radar detector, it may attract tailgaters if you're in the right lane. Ask me how I know.

Some people are too damn cheap to spend $399 on a V1 and will ride your bumper all day even if the left lane is nice and clear.

Get your focking ass our of the fast lane and I won't ride your ass.

People want to just get on with their day, they're not riding your ass cause they personally want to piss you off. As a matter of fact I could give two shits about you. Get over in the next lane and watch how I drive by you and never see you again.

If involving yourself in others business on the road gives you a sick pleasure, then quit your job and become a cop cause we don' t need civilians trying to act like cops on the road.

Maybe you're spending way too much time looking in your rear view you're dropping your speed to 50mph one second and then going 60 in another and then 55mph again. You're so worried about how others are affecting you you're probably doing it to yourself.

Do you have a big truck? Always being higher then other people in your truck can give you an illusion that smaller cars are closer to your ass then you like.

But be honest with yourself, are people REALLY riding your ass in the slow lane? Really?

Men tailgate more, women drive five miles under the speedlimit in the fast lane more.

Shouldn't everyone be under the speed limit?

Quoted:
Usually, I'm tailgated by men whether or not I'm going the speed limit, though I've been guilty of it also (rarely though, I'm too paranoid). I've also been rear ended twice, both times by men.

*snicker*

Yep.. I was waiting for that.

It'd be worse if I were a guy.

Yep...while going 75mph in a 70, while I have my cruise control set. People are stupid...don't kid yourself

What I've noticed, generally its a woman.... Usually the younger crowd.

And yapping on a cell.

I'd have to say men. Something about thinking they're king of the road, especially when they're driving a large lifted diesel truck.

I've hardly had any women tailgate me.

Well, first of all, when I saw the title, I thought you meant this:

However, to the question at hand, I don't really know. I usually don't get enough details out of my mirrors to be able to tell. Further, I tend to drive very politely, moving out of lanes for faster traffic.....................especially when that faster traffic is something like this:

Finally, I really haven't noticed that many tail gaters on me. I guess the presence of a "heavy club"

whether loaded or not, encourages them to hold back.
