Sure, you may think somebody should be driving slower, but you're making the situation WORSE for EVERYBODY else on the road.  YOU, are causing a bigger problem than you are solving.  It leads to tailgating, road rage, and he'll probably drive even faster when he gets around you cause he's pissed.

It's people like you that will cause our highways to become just like the Americans.  Traffic flow is "inverted".  Everybody drives the speed limit in the left lane, nose to tail. The middle lane has trucks in going slow, and right lane is the only one that's clear, and you have people zipping up the right lane trying to pass, as the same time as people are merging from the right.

It's a recipie for disaster, and the accident and insurance rates in the US proves it.  Not to mention, excessive traffic congestion, because the roads don't work efficiently.

I've been known use the brakes *gently* on tailgaters.  But blocking the lane is making the situation worse.

Ontario roads work amazingly well.  Let them work, don't damn IT UP FOR EVERYBODY ELSE!!!

For once I agree with P-51.

BTW. Don't brake check anyone. They are idiots and they might brake check you and you might hit them.. Read that as your fault..
