Happens to me when I exit the Interstate. I go to neutral and coast down from 60 to about 45 to get off on the exit ramp. Invariably I have someone close to my rear end as I enter the cloverleaf. I never touch the brakes and very few of them are close behind me when I merge onto the road at the top of the overpass, at the speed limit.

It's really funny if they are driving a truck or SUV. My old Maxima will easily go around the cloverleaf at 50. My 59 Corvette would do it at 70. Top heavy vehicles have no chance.
