I have developed a technique which I believe may be of use here. It was originally conceived as a cure for nagging, but has been successfully used to treat all manner of behavioural problems. I call it the 'Johnny Fotze that will learn them technique'.

What to do.

When she starts to get to close, give a firm "no, back off".
  • It is important that you don't shout, they can be quite distressed by this, and it can trigger all kinds of trouble- a raised voice at the wrong time of month and you'll have a hysterical banshee to deal with.*
Her natural response to this, or indeed any instruction, will be to disagree. Don't be perturbed, her opinion now is of no more relevance than at any other time. If she continues to drive to close you must now pull her over (or not if you think she can handle it) and deliver a short, sharp blow to her lady farfalla. In other words- punch her in the gunt. She will act as if you have caused her great pain. Trust me, you haven't. I can assure you that a woman has little to no feeling in this area, her reaction is entirely down to shock, but she can hardly roll around wailing "ooh, you've surprised me right in the flue you cheeky chimp" can she? she'd feel as ridiculous as she looked. No, this is merely attention seeking on her part and should be treated as such, ignore it long enough and it will stop.
When you re-commence your journey you might like to make up a little rhyme as a 'rhyminder' (see what I did there?) such as "closer than thit, gets a punch in the twit" or something like. This isn't an essential part of the technique (believe me, she won't forget what you just did), but it's a fun game which will lighten the mood and show there's no hard feelings.
The key to success is consistency. Use this technique every time she drives and within a few short trips you'll have her driving like a man (without the parking ability of course).
That's quite a first post Johnny!!

My sister is an absolute nightmare. Not only too close but fiddles with the radio, contents of her handbag, bag of sweets etc. so not looking at the road either.

Yaargh!

Ugh, angry women on the road. Or angry women in general.

Its like being tailgated by Audi man, but somehow it is more satisfying to wind them up.
Tailgaters are, almost without exception, individuals with anger issues of some description.

nope, either angry and want to intimidate OR stupid, ignorant, not paying attention, not considering the what-if

The latter is not really deliberate tailgating though.
