If,God forbid,it happened to you in your Scooby....with the nudge up the backside.....would you get out of the car?Or steam off?

I would obviously get out,but of course wouldnt happen to me cause mine looks like a taxi,the only reason i would get out though is because the dog can sort out would be car jackers and if that didnt work the Rottie can have a go..

Seriously what would you do,and dont give all the macho bull$hit,unless of course you are a hard ****** chicken fu*ker..!

Depends on the numbers:
One or two and I'd have a go making sure I was tooled up as I left the car - more than that and I'd **** off fairly sharpish...

I would get out ring the police on mobile and let the Clifford Blackjack stop them a minute up the road.

I agree with Richard. More than two and off I go.
Also depends how big / scary they are I guess.

Mccltd - I have anti-hijack too but it would be tempting to hand out some justice if it was safe to do so...

They wouldn't bother with me, like Ima I have a rottweiler. I don't think they would bother with 14.5 stones worth of dog!!!
If they did, they'd be sorry I tell you!!!

Give them the keys and ask whether they'd like me to make a pot of tea or bake a cake. Jen.

Unable to comment as I have just passed out on seeing Imatrukahs posting a thread that is bordering on reasonable

Cool

As above, more than two (or three smaller ones) and I'd be off. Otherwise I'd give them a degree of punishment the judicial system ought to be handing out.
Wrong and dangerous I know, but I have a temper and am a proud man.

Question

Can someone organise a group buy for cans of CS gas? - put me down for 8 cans - two each for me, the wife, son and daughter.
JohnD
Having thought about this posting, I have to assure you I know CS is "illegal" My comments above are tongue in cheek(ish) JD

Considering I almost hit the person that rear ended my preciuos after only 1 week of driving it, stoping only because it was a woman, well, I'll probably end up hiding their bodies in my trunk and dropping them off in the crematory where my friend works at. Oh yeah, I'll also take their wallets too to cover my repair bill...

I'd use one of those bags that inflates from the fumes of your exhaust pipe - no worries.

I'd like to think that I would attempt to make a foot-long maglite part of their face, but in all honesty I don't know what I would do. Traffic lights are a case of stopping a good distance behind any car in front and being ready on the gas and clutch should someone come up behind... sigh.

*******s

There must be something that is nasty but legal that we can get?

I'd get out with my keys, lock the doors and then weigh up the situation.

That way I could at least either kick em in the nuts or run, without having to worry too much about the car.

I think the important thing is to remove the keys from the ignition. That way you are at least making it more difficult for them. If they produced a gun and asked for the keys I'd hand them over though.

I'm with ronnie on this one......perhaps its cos we're both hard welsh bast....

Seriously though....many years ago I used to carry a bat in the car but then the car jacking scene went a bit quiet......since its all taken off again the bat is back....its a No. 7 by the way...in my opinion the most useful size

If it came to fists or even knives i'd like to think the bat would do it......first sign of a gun and I'd make like Linford Christie (and I aint taken bout big Kahunas ya know )
