Uninvited wheel suckers don't affect the front rider. BS!
Yep. In a car, drafting is called "following to closely" and is generally against the law... because it's dangerous. Hit the brakes hard and the person behind is almost certainly going to crash into you.
I generally don't mind if someone does it, but they really should ask first IMO.
