Tailgater
Will the person driving behind me kindly back off please?
You are driving way too close, and it’s not putting me at ease.
For every ten miles per hour of traveling speed,
there is one car length of distance that you need.
That is a fundamental rule when you are on the go.
The state’s division of motor vehicles wants everyone to know.
What will happen if I suddenly have to put on my brakes?
You could find yourself in my back seat, for goodness sakes!
Besides, I pay enough in premiums to my insurance company.
Involvement in an accident is not a good way to meet me.
