Hypothetical my arse. Lol.

Purchase price was 42k.

Alvis Sabre light reconnaissance tank

Ok guys. No BS. Someone reached out looking for someone with knowledge or insights on a Alvis Sabre light reconnaissance tank. This British model has the Jaguar engine and the canon was de-militarized. My tank insights are exclusive to M4A3 Sherman's so I am trying a few different avenues to...

I want to get one of those big crowd control sized cans of OC spray to keep in my car. If I were ever surrounded I could put the window down a crack and spray them. If that didn't work they would be looking down the barrel of a gun. At least that way I can show that I attempted to use other means before drawing a gun.

This would be for when you are trapped and can't pull away. One other thing to keep in mind is not to get right up behind the car in front of you at a stop light. This would allow you room to pull away if you needed to.

South Africa they had a way to shoot fire under the car. Not sure if it was just a demo or not. If you have multiple spray nozzles hooked up to a 20 gallon jug of compressed pepper spray you could really get protesters to stay away pretty effectively.

They put themselves in a bad position. And then, when a drivers self preservation kicks in and things go as expected.
They get all drama queen, and yell out, OMG! ...
Like it's a big surprise to them that someone in a vehicle refuses to be their victim.
And then they call the person an asshole as he is driving away because he refused to be their victim.

Man, they're dumb... Really fucking stupid... Barely useful idiots... They're almost to dumb for even that.

Just as much as I like how they try to prevent the vehicle from moving forward I also like how they try to run after it when the driver takes off, like they are going to be able to catch up.

The guy holding on to the mirror like he can stop the car? WTF!

Haha. I can state from experience it takes 3-4 teenagers pulling back on a car to get it to lose traction if it is a geo metro. A dodge ram? Have fun with that.

Zero wrong with that. The driver continued moving forward at a low speed giving them every opportunity to get off the car. No intent to injure or run over anyone. Just kept moving at a constant low speed to get away to safety.

Given all the extreme acts of violence against vehicles on the road by mobs of angry protesters, I think any vehicle operator will be easily justified to use the force necessary to escape a potentially violent interaction. Then again, we are in bizarro world where wrong is right and right is wrong.

You mean to say a few 150lb people cannot stop a 300hp 5000lb vehicle from moving forward?! I’m shocked!

Those too young to remember Reginald Denny should learn some history, fast. That way, they'll understand why people over 40 are not going to allow themselves to be trapped in a crowd. This goes double for truckers.

Preach it, brother. If I get boxed in like that, it's 3 horn blasts and foot to the mat. Doubly so if I see a firearm pointed my way.

When I was a teenager and a jerk. I had a 1972 Duster that had nice bendable Windshield Washer Fluid lines.
I would bend the lines accordingly. And the pump was strong enough that I could squirt people walking down the sidewalk with water.

It was fun until the town cop addressed my jerkiness.

I drive an SUV that has high pressure headlight washers that come out of the fascia and spray back at the lights. If someone was walking by when I hit the button they would get it good.

Better to just keep a 20lb propane tank in the trunk with a solenoid valve, some tubing running under the car, and a couple BBQ grill igniters.

Wouldn't really hurt anyone, but I doubt they'd stand next to the car for long.

It's like lawn sprinklers, but mobile....
