Well said. If I am being tailgated while I am in the left lane, I move to
the right lane and let the driver pass. If I am already in the right lane,
I gently slow down to a point where the tailgater gets frustrated and
passes me on the left. I definitely don't slow down quickly because that
will risk causing an accident and/or pissing off the tailgater. I am a
relatively fast driver so I usually don't get tailgated and I don't hog up
passing lanes, but when I do get tailgated, this strategy has never let me
down.
