Google the Crown Heights riots, among others. If you plow into the crowd to escape, you had better escape! If the bodies are too thick in front and you come to a stop, the fully enraged crowd will literally rip to to pieces with their bare hands. Seriously.
Plus, what makes you think you will be car #1 with just a few rioters in front? If so, yes, by all means put the hammer down.
But what if you are car #17 in gridlock with 100s of swarming rioters? Then what? You had better have helicopter rotors ready to unfold in a big, big hurry for a vertical escape.

Definately something to think on. Perhaps vertical is not the only choice?
Left? Right? Reverse?
Take down as many as I can before being overwhelmed? And that’s it.
If I can’t get out, I’ll use every effort, and every bullet but one. Because they won’t take me alive for their plaything.
