I drive with the majority of my attention on the rear view mirror. Usually the psychos are closing from behind. So most of the time I know a lot about their driving habits and can predict where and when they will change lanes. My goal is to keep as many pounds or tons of metal in between me and them as safely possible.

In the case mentioned, I would have been following the guy exactly 5.5 car lengths, while he was going 55 mph. I would be as many lanes over as possible while doing this. This kind of driver automatically raises a red flag, because nobody drives 55 (assuming a 55 speed limit) in any lane. So they are obviously out of it, or preoccupied, or both.
