A lot of great advice here and ideas to ponder. Thanks for the responses.

For me, drawing my CCW would always be a last-ditch effort in any situation once I had exhausted all other options. Which seems to be the rational consensus here regarding vehicles.

I appreciated your analogies MLeak, and especially your advice on keeping an eye out for vehicles when walking. More pedestrians should do that rather than assume it's the other way around..

@Kilimanjaro
I don't know as the "prank" angle would hold water as the same could be applied to ANY self defense shooting I'd assume.. As far as "ease" of escape, that could be argued both ways. Pretty hard to outrun a car. But that would depend on the circumstances of course.
