Default Good reason why not to yell "CAR BACK!"

When in a potential bad situation, people often stop pedaling, so this shows that things you say will come back to hurt you.

I was a roadie for 20 years and I have never had that happen when someone said "car back". I can see it happening on fire roads because there often isn't enough room for a bike and a vehicle so the bike riders pull off the road. But I have never seen this on the street.
