Considering an old woman got done for speeding while being scared of a

Its stupid to speed up if you are being tailgated.

You tailgate me and I will slow down.

And I would just ignore the tailgater, or allow him to pass.

The slowing down is to allow him to pass. If neccessary I will slow to
complete stop until the ****wit is out of harms way in fromt of me.

He is tailgating you BECAUSE you are going bloody slow.

No, he's tailgaiting (ie driveing far too close) and making no attemp
to pass because he's a ****wit.

Believe me, he'll pass if he can. Make it easier and he will go away.

If someone tailgates me, I feel guilty for holding him up, as I am obviously in a slower vehicle.

That's no excuse for tailgaiting (ie driving too close).

Yes it is, they're telling you they'd like past. Would you prefer they hooted or flashed?

Slow down some more and let them pass and be on their way.

Exactly.
