Tailgater climbs the ladder of success

If you see hazard lights... don't tailgate!

[JohnDoe]

Between driving responsibly and tailgating, he chose the ladder.

[Cobra]

since everyone already roasted the tailgater, let me also mention the guy who doesn't secure his ladder properly. Everyone knows to ALWAYS make sure your equipment is secured. That dude with the ladder could've ended someones life, especially tailgaters

[zzoinks]

I love how the car in front was able to smoothly drive over the ladder

[overclockofficial]

The tailgater is so courteous, taking the ladder off the road like that

"If you see hazard lights, don't tailgate"

Or better yet, don't tailgate.

I love how people stress themselves out without benefit driving as tense as possible, often to hurry up and wait at a red light.

A similar thing happened on day I was driving. Two dogs ran onto the highway. 100 cars were all breaking, many stopped completely, and many turned on hazard lights. One woman didn't even slow down. She went around everyone in the left break down lane doing about 70. She hit the two dogs killing them both instantly. Then she pulls over and starts crying. If the entire highway is slamming on their breaks, maybe you should too. Not get annoyed because you are in a hurry to go shopping and accelerate around. There might be a reason everyone else is stopping.

The tailgater clearly has a history of tailgating, the dent on the front of their hood is proof of that.

[snuffs.]

that dent in the front show us that some people need to learn the hard way more than once.

I hit a ladder on the 405 once, nobody hit there hazard lights. The person in front of me hit it and changed the angle of the ladder, and I was not able to swerve because there were cars on both side. I made a quick decision to take the hit and I aimed the right tires for the center rungs of the ladder, as the ladder had become perpendicular to me. I went directly over the middle rings crushing all of them. Surprisingly the tires were fine and I had a small scratch on the plastic underneath the car that nobody can see. Somehow got away with no consequences

This dude with his two cameras just couldn't wait to catch something like this. Probably the best day of his life.

The tailgaters thoughts after he sees your hazards:
“Should I slow down? Or should I stupidly ride his tail?
I prefer the ladder”

In Australia on a highway I once saw a 4x4 in front of me with the back right tire looking "suspicious" all of a sudden, like "flapping". Instinctively, I slowed down, put on the hazard lights, and sure enough, the tire burst. Luckily the highway had a middle grassy area as they sometimes do in Australia, with no guardrail, so the guy quickly went right and stopped safely there. Later I pulled off to refuel at a petrol station and a lady behind me thanked me, apparently she was behind me when the tire burst. She told me she'd never have stopped in time in my situation.

Its good to see that guy grab the ladder using his car so he could move it off the freeway. Such a great Samaritan

[bazbbeeb]

Tailgater upon seeing two flashing lights: so which way is he turning, left or right!?

[Revelation_-]

Guy was probably thinking "two turn signals?"

[sheldonrigsby]

I could be driving on the moon and I would have a tailgater. I pick them up everywhere. I live in a very isolated place in Texas, middle of nowhere, and when I leave my house I usually get a tailgater. And it doesn't matter how fast you drive on a highway; there's the D-head tailgater right on schedule. Glad to see one eat a ladder! hahahaha

In Norway we are adviced to stay 3-seconds behind. I always do.
When someone tailgates me, I let go of the pedal and lose speed until he gets the point and increases distance, or passes me.

When you run out of bananas in Mario Kart.

Looking on the bright side he got a free ladder.
