Being pushed

When someone is tailgating your automobile, it's tempting to think that you're being pushed. It's tempting to press the accelerator a little harder just to create some space in your rear-view mirror.

But before you increase your speed, check the speedometer, and check the posted speed limit.

Remember that you are responsible for your own actions. Driving faster could introduce safety risks. Driving faster could introduce legal risks.

A better way to say it: the person behind you is not going to pay your speeding ticket.

You are the driver, and the control is yours.
