What should you do if someone is tailgating you?

When someone is tailgating, the best course of action is to remain calm and allow them to pass when it is safe to do so. This approach prioritizes safety for both you and the tailgater. By not engaging in aggressive driving behaviors, such as speeding up or braking suddenly, you can prevent escalating the situation and reduce the risk of an accident. Allowing the tailgater to pass helps eliminate the pressure they are exerting on you and allows you to continue driving safely without distractions or stress. This approach is also in line with defensive driving principles, which emphasize maintaining a safe and composed driving environment.
