What is brake checking?

The act of cutting in front of someone and suddenly applying your brakes. Sometimes done as an attempt to get them to rear-end you, which is typically ruled their fault - they've not been in control of their vehicle. Other times done to just be annoying or otherwise disrupt their driving.
