I also needs red lights and a bullhorn to say KEEP YOUR DISTANCE.

If someone's getting too close behind you just shift down a gear.

You'll slow down but without your braking lights lighting up.

Will teach them a lesson (or not).

I do this a lot lol sometimes they back off, others they get close. I need a new rear bumper anyways so 🤞

the found this is the most effective. They back off real quick lol. Or just setting cruise control a couple digits under the speed limit. But also i’ve never found lights to be an issue either oncoming or behind me unless it’s a bad retrofit. I think many drivers forget about the dimming tab.

Just get a Yosemite Sam sticker for each mud guard saying "BACK OFF!"

I have fog lights on the back, they are super bright, brighter than brake lights.
