If you want a guy off your ass, you're suppose to 'tap' your brakes, not actually USE THEM. It's so the brake light comes on with out them actually slowing you down.

If he braked that hard, I'd assume he'd have skid marks too. (pun intended)
Yeah but he could just say that something ran in front of him. Who's fault would it be if the person following couldn't stop safely behind him?
They were on a bridge!

Don't forget he's good at evasive action! My guess is, even if EyeMWing was driving an 18-wheeler while tailgating a Mini Cooper S, and the Mini slammed on its brakes, Mr. EyeMWing would be able to flip the truck OVER the Mini Cooper and land on all 18 tires. He is THAT good.

Not quite. I could probably flip it over ONTO the Mini Cooper, and do the world a favor, but beyond that, I don't think so.

not being able to fit in a mini cooper doesn't mean that mini coopers are bad...
He'd be able to grease his way in w/ his hair
