Sadly sometimes tailgaters don't get off your ass if you slow down. I slowed down to 30 once on a 70mph stretch before one guy finally passed while flipping me the bird.

My new rule is to just floor it to get other cars in between me and them.

Wow. To paraphrase Team America: that guy was an asshole and a pussy.
To be fair its really uncommon, but it has stuck out quite a bit in my mind.

The amusing part to me was he turned left only about a mile up so there was no real reason to stay tailgating (no off ramps up and coming). Just to note that I wasn't being a dick about things either.
