Correct answer
- stay in the right lane.
- slow down suddenly.
- slow down gradually.
Explanation
If you are being followed too closely (tailgated), slow down gradually to encourage the tailgater to pass. If this fails, move over to your right and let the tailgater pass. Don't slow down suddenly. The tailgater may not have enough room in front of his or her vehicle to slow down or stop before hitting you from behind.
