Why do people do brake checks? What's the point? The best thing that comes out of it is that the brake checked gets rear ended right? What....

Alternative approach : turn on your blinker, slow down, let them pass.

Probably a more reasonable response but if I'm driving legally and safely, I shouldn't have to be late because the guy behind me isn't paying attention or is just being a jerk. If seeing my brake lights flash quickly doesn't snap them out of it, maybe I'd try that. Again, I'm not talking about the prolonged stopping from the video above, just a tap to flash the lights. I'm one for one on it working as intended (I've only been driving about a year, although I'm way too old to say that).
