If you can't concentrate on your overall situational awareness including what's in front of you, and behind you (hint it takes a micro second to check the reaeview mirror) then you shouldn't be on the road. And it makes me wonder how you got your licence in the first place.

If you are doing speed limit it does not mean anything. You are not the police and you are not authorized to police the road.
Besides the road code clearly states if someone is tailgating you you should pull over and let them pass.
Besides, people think they are doing the speed limit, but in reality they are 10kph below, because most of the speedo's lie. Hence majority of careless drivers that speed don't get the tickets and get away with 61kph in 50kph zone. If you have calibrated your speedo you will notice this.

It's very important to make sure you have a safe distance between you and the vehicle in front, so you will have enough time to stop if you need to stop suddenly.

If you can't do that as a driver, you waive the right to be treated fairly on the road.
