I asked a police officer what to do if a mob surrounds my car. He said drive slow and if they start damaging the car step on it.
From our own Travis McGee, AKA former SEAL Matt Bracken:
o I never ever stop (at a red light or anywhere) nearer than 15 feet from the vehicle in front. This allows me to accelerate out even if the timid fool in front is afraid to move.
o If I see even a hint of a protest, I get in the inside lane, so Im not trapped along the curb side by vehicles on my left.
o If anybody stands in front of my vehicle, Im going to move forward at 5mph. At 5mph or 35, a human cannot stop or even slow a vehicle. Its many horsepower vs one human power. No contest. Car wins. At 5mph, you are demonstrating (to a later hypothetical court) that your intention was not to run anybody down. They can simply move out of the way, or not.
o After the Portland beat down, I have a reasonable fear of death or grave bodily injury if Im pulled from my vehicle by an angry mob. Im not stopping. Ill keep a steady 5 mph forward speed.
o If I see a gun brandished, or one of my windows is breached, Im going hammer down, and to hell with anybody in front of me. Fear for my life.
o I will not pull my own gun as long as my vehicle is moving. Its just a better weapon than a pistol, and the vehicle gets you clear of the danger zone, a pistol does not.
o I will only pull my pistol if my vehicle is physically stopped, (and I dont mean by idiots standing in front of it.)
At which point (as has been seen) they'll be fired from their job, have a mob at their house, and be prosecuted by the state.
