Ditto.
I've told this story somewhere on here before but...Not drafting per se, but a girl was cycling close behind me as I entered Burgess Park some time in the summer. I slowed down to let some peds get past safely, she plowed into the back of me at speed. I got flung off my bike and landed on my ribs. When I sat up, bike was gone. Turns out it ended up in the duckpond/lake thingy adjacent to the path. Now I get twitchy when someone is behind and close-ish.

I don't like drafters because I don't know if they are attentive and competent, or if they're going to crash into the back of me once I need to brake hard/manoeuvre.
They're free to get the aeros I don't mind :)
