Do you get nervous when you look in your rear view?

Not being a smart ass but whenever I see a Toyota in my rear view now, I get nervous. Anyone else experience this?

No more than any other driver I see in my rear view. Which is to say, I constantly contemplate whether I should brake check them for riding too close to my bumper...

Funny you say this I did yesterday when a prius was behind me as I was at a stop light and the driver was approaching fast and I didnt think they was going to stop. First thought was damn gas pedal is stuck. They did stop but about 2 feet from my bumper, turns out they just suck at driving.

I came up to a redlight, had a Venza stopped in front of me and a late model Camry coming up behind, yes, that was a scary moment.
