If I see they have the Cigarette sticker with the #1 in the center, I let them go as fast as they want without pursuit.

Hey Mike, I was pulled over on a four lane road in the left lane, doing the speed limit everything was up to date, He gave me a ticket for driving in the passing lane! Next day I saw a state trooper following a car on 31 in the passing lane, never pulled him over and there was no traffic, don't get it, should be equallity a little consistency ,sends people the wrong message, thats why were gun shy.

Hey aero, good to hear from you. Haven't seen you on the board in a while. I think I would have fought that ticket.

I've been tailgated before. I never felt that I was being instigated to go faster. I never thought that speeding up until he stopped tailgating me would be useful. That's ludicrous.
IfI'm being tailgated, I'll decide if the guy wants to get somewhere in a hurry or if he is a distracted or immature driver. If I decide the guy just wants to go faster then me, I will try to give him room to pass at the first wide section, etc. If I decide they are just immature, I will tap the brake lights and if they get all crappy about it, I'll pull over and slow so they can go on.
If I'm in a rowdy mood, I may indeed play with them but its sure not becaure they are "instigating" me to go faster.

Could be another vehicle similar to yours that is stolen, involved in a crime, or owned by a wanted person.

The "pacer" hadn't moved over in about 15 minutes and always kept a position that prevented passing.
Well it was time for him to go....
A little tap from behind got his attention, but didn't get him to move. So a throttle to the stop bump, and push moved his toyota pickup ahead, and off to the inside shoulder... That was the end of that...
