[QUOTE="kulwen, post: 578320, member: 4646"] I am with Dcarver. I use my washer fluid in my truck to spray tailgaters behind me. On my way home, 2 lane road, speed limit 50, most traffic wants to travel 65, and a few stop lights pack us in tight. At about 35mph I can hit the washer fluid and get they car behind me. The first time I do it they often think it is a fluke and just use their washer fluid to clear up the spot I put on their window. After the 2nd or 3rd time they back off and stop tailgating. My truck is not small and has a shell with no windows. There is no way for them to see the traffic in front of me and if I need to brake I would get rear ended. Who I do this on a bike? More then likely no. However, my commute is not the same as yours so I can't pass judgment. I find it funny how many people pass judgment on stuff such as this. If, I have a tailgaters on my butt that just won't back off I check the road way on both the left and right. If, all is clear I break check the jerk behind me. Not just a break tap, but I jab them hard to drop my speed from 70mph to 50mph, then I get back on the gas. More then once this has scared the dork behind me to lock his brakes or swerve off the road into the dirt on the side of the road. Yes, they are pissed off. They sometimes want to pull up beside me to yell at me and give me the finger, but at least they are not tailgating me. I catch a lot of crap from some I know when they hear about me doing this.
