Chapter One

AUTOMOBILE SITUATIONS

THERE is no law or formula, natural or man-made, that requires an assailant or assailants to attack their intended victim in a predetermined pattern and/or with standard design tactics and weapons. Both premeditated and spontaneous attacks often feature unusual places, tactics, and/or weapons. Their form is limitless, subject only to the expressions of the psychologically-disturbed mind making these attacks.

Being attacked by an assailant or assailants while in an automobile must receive careful attention and consideration as a delicate situation, even more difficult to defend against than when outside and free to move around. Much of what is done borrows liberally from commoner situations described in Books Two, Three, and Four, and requires that you take the proper defensive response if you wish to avoid serious injury or even death. Here too, in situations involving an automobile, mistakes may be costly.
