Device to Stop Tailgaters

Device to Stop Tailgaters

I finally rigged up a device to stop tailgaters. I took a small air
compressor and connected it to my engine pulleys. I mounted an air
tank in the trunk. I then mounted a nailgun in my trunk and made a
hole behind the decal, where it is not noticable. I mounted the
nailgun and used an electric solenoid to activate the trigger. I
disabled the device in the gun which normally requires down pressure
on the tip of the gun to fire it.

Now, all I do is hit a button on the dash and it fires nails right
into the radiator of the tailgater. A few minutes later their engine
overheats and they pull over, never to tailgate until they get a new
radiator. This thing works great, and none of the tailgaters know
what happened. Its just road debris that punctured their radiator,
and I get the last laugh, while doing a service to considerate
drivers.

If you did that to me, I'd notice. I don't think you'd get a chance to
try your device again.

Tailgate me and you'll find out. and I can guarantee that I'd use it
again. You on the other hand could end up in a urn on someones
fireplace mantel.

I would consider what you have to be a firearm. If someone fires
somethink like that at me, I will consider it an attempt on my life
and will respond appropriately.

That's easy. Shut off your computer and no one will have to read your
lame trolling again.

Do you have the balls to use it on a tailgating cop?

That does sound a bit more effective than Aunt Judy's marbles.

I know you're joking but seriously, the problem with all such gadgets is
the gadget itself installed on your car. If the cops suspect you and search
your car, they got your butt.Better to just carry something innocent like a
golf ball or rock on the car seat and toss that backwards into the
windshield of the deadly tailgater.
