I have known a couple of people who had an SUV tailgate, the drivers decided to speed up, but the larger vehicles simply tailgated at the higher speed, until they turned on some pretty lights.

I have had plenty of trucks and SUVs tailgate me so close that I can only see their windshield, grill, headlights, or whatever.

Congratulations, you know how to turn on your brights. I know how to adjust my mirrors. I just wish that I could adjust them to shine the headlights back at the driver. Regarding unmarked police vehicles and entrapment, I have always wondered, if it was daytime, they got close enough that you could see unlit lights under their grill, and you had a passenger, could you have them call 911 and say "We are driving [direction] on [street], driving [speed limit], and there is an unmarked police car so close that I can see the lights they are waiting to turn on. Will you please tell them to back off? They are making us nervous!"
