Why do people flash you for no reason... Or am i missing something,

Single carriageway 60mph. Car in front doing 50. Dropped into 3rd quick overtake 63mph.5th back to 60 and I'm ready to carry on my journey..but no this twat flashes me then indicates as if telling me to pull over and thwn tailgates me! Before then backing off near the end of it,
Didn't rise to the bait and stuck at 60, after all thats all I wanted to do! Why flash? What good does it do? What did I do wrong?
Grr rant over

Just a c0ck monkey. Ignore. Carry on with life.

Remember that for as many of us that are into cars, know the laws of the roads etc, there are countless more who don't know the rules, and he probably thought you were in the wrong.

Should've pulled over and twatted him. I mean, explained why you were in the right... :lol:

if people tailgate me, I slow down to a snails pace until they get the idea.

Or if it's a bad day, I constantly brake then slightly speed up, the brake again, until they get the idea.

If they hit me, their fault! If they get out and look like they're 6'5 and take steroids daily, just make a note of the number plate - insurance claim/GBH claim, woohoo! Monies.

I slow right down for tail gaters and when they try and over take i floor it, i repeat this until they back off. The reason why this happens is:

1. If your car is even slightly modified people feel threatened by it assuming your just another max power chav then respond in trying to prove to you that its not right and theyre better than you.

Or

2. Its a max power chav you did it to and and take it as a challenge to prove who has a bigger manhood, which would probably be them as its stuck on there forehead.

i seem to get it more in the si, maybe because it looks like a boy racer car, its not like i have the power to pull away from them either so i have perfected the art of slamming the anchors on to shit them up..

£300 banger fiesta vs £xxxx audi.... normally gets the point across that they have more to loose and back off!!!!

Use your left foot to break whilst keeping the accelerator on so you don't actually slow down much, yet it has the effect of them braking and dropping back :lol: Just keep doing that for willy wonka tailgaters...

Don't know about you guys but something else i hate is when people change lanes incredibly slowly and don't use their indicaters EVER!

Seems to be some of these 4x4 drivers aswell and after this happened on the A3 several times involving me being cut up several times by a "rich" man in his land rover disco diesel im sad to say i rose to it, but the cougar did me proud and kindly showed range rover driver that his money would not beat a couple hundred quid coupe and put him in his place

Some people just don't get the message sometimes as i try to show them how to use their indicators to change lanes but they never pay attention, so i just don't bother as long as i drive properly :)

Just generally people drive shit nowadays, Lane discipline sucks. People go in the right hand lane to go straight on on a roundabout near me, im the ONLY person that uses the correct left hand lane, I know theres no road markings at all.. but that means use the left hand lane! its a second exit, at 12 oclock, with a slight merge for people coming to the right! Pisses me off.
I wasn't rising to anything with this guy, no braking, no speeding off, nothing, I just stuck at 60, where I wanted to be, for him to sit at 50 then sit up my arse at 60 just makes me think? Well if you were doing that in the first place I wouldn't have ruined your ego in my small hatchback, Idiot.

Gently bring up the handbrake for tailgaters. More stopping power than lifting off and no brake lights... Everyone knows the mantra of insurers about rear end collisions.
