Don't tailgate and it won't be a problem either way. Same action, different intent. Context doesn't stop mattering just because you're operating a car. The courts don't ignore intent and context, what with mens rea being a huge factor in sentencing and lawsuits, so why would you think it stopped mattering just because you're behind the wheel of a car?

OudeGeuze 02/22/23 3:07:16 PM #156:	hockeybub89 posted... Road rage is bad, but people non-maliciously brake quickly every fucking day Which isn't brake checking. Brake checking is slamming on your brakes in attempt to get someone tailgating to rear end you. Suddenly braking because of road conditions/drivers ahead of you isn't brake checking. Brake checking escalates an already dangerous situation. There's no valid reason to ever do it. People shouldn't tailgate, but maliciously slamming your brakes because someone is tailgating you is not ever a correct solution. <cite>OudeGeuze posted [p:971737191] in This bumpe...

hockeybub89 02/22/23 5:48:17 PM #172:	Tailgaters ITT big mad about being called dangerous drivers. Actually brake checking is bad, but it literally does not cause anywhere as many accidents as following too closely and it would not even be a thing if no one followed closely. That's not making excuses for brake checkers or "victim blaming". If one group of people don't act like jackasses, then there will never be anyone to retaliate with their own jackassery in the form of brake checking. Is brake checking no one a problem in some city somewhere? This topic is like people that walk around screaming insults at people getting mad that some people yell back or get violent. Yes, that is bad, but you're deliberately being a jerk and instigating it. At worst, you're equally bad. And if you stopped being an asshole, there would be nothing for anyone to retaliate against. --- http://card.psnprofiles.com/1/NIR_Hockey.png he/him/they/them <cite>hockeybub89 posted [p:971740412] in This bumpe...

Tenlaar 02/22/23 6:22:54 PM #182:	Being bad first doesnt inherently make something worse than the thing that is bad second. And trying to rank them is pointless anyway. They are both bad, period. I recently drove about 1200 miles with a coworker, whenever somebody did something like cut him off or even go too slow in the lane he was in he would flash the brights of this 26 foot uhaul at them. I asked him what is accomplished by responding to the situation by adding in a new dangerous thing and his answer was just so theyll know I dont like what they did.

Don't tailgate anybody and you'll have way less of a chance of getting into an accident because of brake checking. Both are bad things to do, but one tends to directly cause the other.
