how to pissoff tailgaters !!!

[flipstylex]

It took me awhile to realize this, but i think this is the best way to get somebody back in a safe manner .

There's nothing more that i hate when you get your car dirty right after you wash it. I had this one incident once when i was running late from work. It took me 1 hour to wax my car and the only thing in my mind was hoping that it wont rain. While driving through the highway, there's this one car that was driving so slow !!! So what do i do.... I tailgated the guy....all of a sudden, the guy turned on his winshield wiper and all the water splashed right through my car !! wtf.... after all that time i waxed my car, my car is now ruined !!!

Now i come to realize that this is actually a good idea to piss sumone off when they tailgate you. Everythime someone tailgates me in the parkway, i simply turn on my windshield wiper and see all my wiper fluids richochete right behind me and piss of the guy behind me You'll know that u hit him when u see him turn on his wipers too loL ! Anybody ever have this experience in the highway ??? is so, u know you've been a victim of the WIPER SPLASHER (cabpatch)!!!!!!

haha i read this on another forum..was it a focus that did this to you

 

[autoxes]

don't you have to shim the back of your hood to do this? one of my buddies with a civic put some .5 spacers in between the hood and the hinge to give it a bit of a cowl effect for cooling the engine bay and his washers spray over his roof.

i think he's talking about the rear sprayer on the wagons.

even still, on sedans just spray your front wipers on the highway and it'll make it's way to the guy right behind you.

/has had it done to me (not intentionally, but they had dirty ass windows)

 

[awsmp5]

haha yeah never really thought to do that when im being tailgated, i always do what everyone does and tap the brakes so they light up obnoxiously with my left foot while going the same speed

 

[jersey_emt]

Downshifting, so you slow down but no brake lights come on, is fun too.

 

[mountjonas]

But the brake check is so fun and it pisses them off even more when you show that you're purposefully slowing down on them(peep)

 

[chacon101]

I have been sprayed a ton of times and it sucks (sad1)

Don't really get tail-gated though...I guess I am always driving too fast. (burnout)

I do this as well. I find it to be quite entertaining, kinda metaphorically 'pissing' on their vehicle.

This usually is reserved for highway speeds only, and I have stopped using the rear window washer because it really just seems to pool on my own bumper. I say just stick with the front, and really pull on that lever for a while.

Usually the effect is subtle enough for no retaliation, only once have I had a tailgating SUV speed passed, change lanes to get back in front of me (since a spot opened for me to move over), then attempt to do the same thing. (he used the rear one only, and it had no effect, concluding with a flip of the bird).

It was nice to finally see the technique validated, so the tailgater actually realised what I was doing though. Left me smiling at any rate.

ps. My dad used to have a saab 9000, it's front windshield nozzles could swivel to the side, and you could drive by and spray pedestrians. . . I guess i have a history. . .

 

[Foolish]

A certain (very evil) part of me would love to install an extra set of sprayer nozzles on the underside of the P5 spoiler pointing straight back with their own switch and reservoir for a much less subtle version of this same idea!
(laugh)(laugh)
For bonus evil, you could fill the reservoir with that deer-urine stinky stuff! The great part is that they wouldn't necessarily know you'd stink-bombed them until they stopped and got out of the car!

i'm talking about the front wipers guys !!! I't only works on high speeds, hence highway. You don't have to adjust anything at all, just spray on and wipe, the wind do all the job to get all that water through your roof and hit sumone behind you . Funny thing is, most people won't know this is intentional bcuz "i'm just wiping my windshield due to bugs damnit" ! loL

One time, i actually had a guy that got so pissed he went right beside me and said, "wtf man, i just cleaned my car, u sprayed that s*** on purpose" !
then, he tries to pass me, thinking he can do the same and spray me... but 263 bhp is too much for his corolla hahaha sad... he couldn't pass...im too fast.... instead i took the next exit.... he didnt know what hit him

My first car, which was actually a truck, could do the same thing. You could turn both nozzles to the left or right. Turn them to the right and spray people, cars, whatever as you drive down the road. Works best at a slow speed So you are not alone in your windshield nozzle hijinks.

 

[iracemine]

not as safe but using the hand brake wont activate the brake lights and acare the crap out of people.

but yeah ive been a victim of wiper spray a few times when I was younger. now I think people that tail gate are idoits and deserve a accident on there record from someone brake checking them, or I mean a squirrel jumped out in front of me.

 

[Bravnik]

LOL - I know when I had my S2000 the guys on the forums use to say to carry a few tiny ballbearings in your car and when somone was on your ass all you had to do was thumb a couple up and out the vert. They swore it worked great

IT does work. My biker friends do this. I actually saw it used on one occassion when We were driving down to Palm Coast. He was riding his bike and I was behind him in the ms3. A tailgater gets right up on my ass and I do a few brake checks and the moron gets closer, so I switched lanes. This Jackass decides to ride up on my buddy. Buddy is stuck between the asshat behind him, a slower car in front and another car to the right. The Tailgater kept getting closer and closer, and I see my buddy reach into his pocket, turn sideways and started chucking ball bearings right on this guy's SUV hood and window. After about 5 of them went into the front window the dude slowed down and my boy got over and had a few words with him. Funniest, yet scariest thing I've seen. I thought it would cause an accident.

I've been doing the windshield washer thing for ages! It happened to me on accident (I wasn't tailgating). When I do it, I hold that lever for like 15 seconds straight.

 

[Hikaru9]

Like someone else mentioned, I do a rev-match downshift to slow down.

Then I just drive the speed limit. *^_^*

 

[redspeed3tk]

in my last car (audi a4) it had a reverse fog light and i put the bulb in the other side so when someone would get on my ass i would turn them it ha it looked like brake lights then i would speed up that was fun i wish this car had them

 

[Knox Joe]

When people try to spray me I get closer...

...but then I'm usually in a 2500 Chevy work van so it doesn't hit my windshield, it hits my bumper, and a huge van like that is kinda an imposing thing to have covering your rear window.

 

[Ebruess]

At my HS kids (Mostly Soph and Junior's) love to tailgate and I have this bad habit of chewing gum and if I break checked them by downshifting and no avail then I would turn around (Back when I had my old convertible car) and throw my gum at their windshield and during the summer. Ooh boy is that a biotch to get off.
