When Stalled By A Violent Riots, Stationary Vehicles Are Death Traps

“Safe” Inside a Stationary Vehicle?

Two weeks ago, on I90 near Cleveland, OH, the entire freeway was blocked, taken over, and completely shut down for more than an hour by a mob of street thugs who then accosted stalled motorists. No escape was allowed!

Frantic 911 calls from stranded motorists were answered with a voicemail recording!

Many naively believe they are “safe” within a locked vehicle, but auto glass represents only a “symbolic” barrier. It is easily shattered. Thus, when inside a vehicle, your only safety lies in motion! So long as you’re moving, escape from criminal violence is possible.

This is why “street takeovers,” like the one described above, are so dangerous!

When you are inside a vehicle that isn’t moving and blocked in so you can’t move, you are in extreme peril from mobs of street criminals, the very ones who manufacture the street takeover, to begin with, in an effort to trap hapless victims!

When stalled by a violent riot, stationary vehicles are death traps!

When approaching a manufactured traffic jam, turn around as quickly as you can (driving across the median when necessary) and rapidly exit, going the other direction.

We’ll see many of these incidents, mostly around metro areas, in the coming weeks and surely immediately after the election.

Arrests are rarely made, so overwhelmed police have few tactics that are effective in preventing these dangerously obstructive/paralyzing riots. Most will go on for hours, maybe days, with no effective police intervention.

Trapped victims will be at the mercy of violent mobsters, who have little to worry about.

Extreme caution, as well as adequate personal preparation, are the order of the day!
