I have been riding since the late 70's and have developed a strategy for road riding.
I literally operate on the assumption that other drivers (or riders for that matter) are stone drunk and are complete idiots.
Whenever I brake I glance in the mirror and if I have any question about the vehicle behind me stopping I move to the shoulder.
Also if I have a vehicle tailgating me I either accelerate and put a few cars between us or simply pull off the road.
Years ago Harley riders were as a bunch the most experienced and competent riders on the road however in the last 15 years or so this is less true.
If I see a group of riders with brand new Harleys, Harley jackets, Harley sunglasses, and who knows probably Harley underware I stay as far away as I can. A lot of these people can barely manage their 2-wheelers in general not to mention in an emergency.
Sorry if I pissed anyone off, it's just my 2-bit opinion.
