Letter to the editor: How to ward of tailgaters
June 3, 2009 · Updated 1:00 PM
Tailgaters, the bane of courteous drivers ... how to cope? Apply for vanity license plate: BACK OFF (not available). Maybe U2CLOSE? Bingo! To clarify meaning, a bumper sticker - top line: NO TAILGATING; bottom line: THE CLOSER YOU GET, THE SLOWER I GO ... with caricature of impish turtle.
Friends and family say it’s inviting harassment. So? I love tormenting my tormentors.
