Brake whore

One who tailgates a vehicle in front of them and repeatedly taps one's brakes in order to not smash into the vehicle whilst tailgating.
Alex came across a brake whore in the far left lane on the highway. Annoyed, he immediately signaled and switched lanes in order to avoid completely wearing his break pads out.

brake check

The ILLEGAL act of intentionally slamming your own brakes in order for another driver tailgating you to rear-end your own car.

Many people do not realize it, but it is the person who slammed on his/her brakes that are at fault, not the tailgater.

If the police finds out about this, the tailgater will most likely be cited for following too close, and fined, but the brake checker will be arrested for reckless driving, and charged with a misdemeanor (or felony if someone gets injured or killed).
Brake checker: This driver behind me is following too close, time to brake check.

Tailgater: Your fault, not mine.

Brake checker: No, it's your fault, because you were following too close.

Tailgater: Let's see what the police says.

Police officer: Tailgater, this is a citation for following too close. Take care of that as soon as possible.

Tailgater: Thank you officer.

Brake checker: I'd better be on my way.

Police officer: No, you're coming with me. You're under arrest for driving recklessly with the intent to cause an accident.

Brake checker: FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tailgater: U mad bro?
