Brake checking is dangerous for a variety of reasons. I occasionally "false brakecheck" by putting on my emergency flashers for one cycle while maintaining my speed. Thai makes the tailgater, if he/she is paying attention, think that I have put on the brakes when I really haven't. They usually back off a little, but mostly come right back up after they realize I did not hit my brakes. If that happens I just slow down until they go around. As someone else said, there is too much road rage and too many idiots driving to take a chance of doing something foolish. You can't fix stupid, especially by being equally stupid!
