Most instancss I have experienced of tailgating are when people want to drive too fast or unsafely:
I’m going more or less exactly 50 kph, which is the speed limit in the city, but someone thinks because the street is broad and straight they should be able to go 70+.
I know the route and know some dangerous curve or sudden intersection behind a curve is up ahead so I slow down but someone behind me doesn’t like it.
Sure it happens that people are going too slow. Even then it’s no excuse to tailgate. All that does is make everything less save for everyone including you. You can honk or overtake at the next opportunity, but all you achieve by tailgating is risk your own life.
