I've found that letting the emergency blinkers flash briefly will startle the idiot, but they will only work a time or two before the victim, er, offender, realizes that they aren't brake lights. I rarely ever get tailgated, mainly since I drive fast. However, should someone actually keep up with me I generally let them pass. I don't tailgate people myself as I'm afraid of the damage that could result (to both car and wallet).

I always thought it'd be fun to attach a button to the dash that, when pushed, would activate the brake lights. That way you're in no real danger of being rear-ended, there's no dainty TAP which most tailgaters are pros at dealing with........and wouldn't it be fun to watch em lurch?
