Good plan on the class but remind her the car is running before she opens the garage door so she can goose the accelerator. The stopping power of a car is even more than a 45.
She did say something about running over him. After reading your reply, I would add "put car in reverse" before opening garage door.

I don't think I would be concerned about a cop giving me a hard time about cc in a PO parking lot. From what I have seen I doubt they would have a clue if it was legal or not. Every cop should have to attend the class I attended.

In a church secruity briefing an officier stated that it was a violation to cc in a church. He came prepared with regs that he got from the local DA's office supporting his argument. Of course it was the old regs from 2004. Didn't take long to get him a copy of the current regs. Hopefully he passed those on to the DA. Thankfully several people who were in the briefing were chls.

But it's not a guarantee! I came out of a restaurant & walked up to my car (dark blue Jetta). Hit the remote door lock on my keychain from 15' away, heard the 'clunk' of the doors unlocking. Opened the door, and the alarm went off! I stood there next to the car, puzzled as to why the alarm would go off after I'd disarmed it & heard the doors unlocked. Then realized that *my* dark blue Jetta was one space away. The dark blue Jetta I'd opened had apparently been left unlocked (but armed alarm) by its owner. I *had* unlocked my car, and heard it unlock, but opened the wrong car's door.

Owner never appeared, so I got into ***my*** dark blue Jetta & drove away.
I'll quit carrying a gun when they make murder and armed robbery illegal
