Maybe.
But the way I picture it is I'll be in a vehicle far enough back to provide me a quick retreat.
If bullets did come my way, the engine block provides a little protection since I would most
likely be facing them straight on.

I know there are a lot of factors involved, but I just can't see totally abandoning someone who is in serious need of help.
I think the horn thing might make them stop and possibly save the victim from being harmed further.

Besides, I think most BG's are just cowards and I would hope they would just cut their losses and get out of Dodge if they know they've been noticed.
I see. That line of thinking makes sense to me.

I just wish someone that gave a crap about others would have been in the area to get their tag number. These guys are low lives and I hope they're caught soon.

Immediately call 911 while hanging back and using the horn to draw attention.
I would want the BG's to know there is someone watching and summoning help.

The most important thing would be getting a license plate number and good description of the perps.
Wouldn't honking the horn and drawing attention maybe get the pistol turned in your direction? I like the reply as far as being a good witness, calling 911, and getting plate number and description. But, I wouldn't draw attention to myself and get the gun pointed in my direction. At that point I would feel my life is threatened and be forced to react.
