The source says, slow down at least 20 MPH below posted speed.
Even moving to the far side of your lane is important for so many reasons. For example, that tailgater cannot see the danger because he is too close. Moving makes it easier for him to see he is about to kill someone.
Signaling a lane change even if not changing lanes (and long before approaching the stopped vehicle) is what you should be doing to inform the five cars behind you. And to force cars in left lanes to move more leftmost - first in fear and second that gives you more maneuvering room.
What vehicles are the most irresponsible? From bike riding, the vehicles that most often move more left are cars and 18 wheel trucks. Largest SUVs are the worst and most aggressive offenders. So consistently that an SUV that does move over is noteworthy.
