Detecting a Tail and What to Do Next

[Shadow Rider]

Slightly off topic, one should never get bumper-to-bumper with the vehicle ahead of you when stopped. Always allow one half vehicle length ahead, in case you want/need to drive away. You'll thank me one day. . .

Been telling my wife this for years

As a former LEO, I was fed too many BS lies, and I'll not lay any on my current brethren, especially just so my call may move up the queue. For me, fear has never played a role in my decisions to be truthful.

Had a sister Officer who was followed home and ended up shot in a gunfight. They do not like us. Be spatially aware. Had some clown, back in the 70s, following me and twice try to run me off of the freeway in L.A. third time I displayed my ,38 as he headed my way and he took off. Be aware and be armed!.!!

A CRAZY Ivan will only alert the bad guy and may make him escalate OR reschedule for another time or victim. Its fine if youre prepared to go full Viking, lacking the lone berserker thing, seek help but get it there ASAP

Depends who is tailing you. A one person/car tail can be spotted. A professional three person/car tail is a ***** to spot. As a P.I., I did a fair amount of tailing by car. (At 6’7”, a foot trail was impractical.). Was easy to tell when you were spotted and pulled off the tail.
