Drive to Survive!
  It's a hostile world out there. People get carjacked. They also get shot at, sometimes with no apparent provocation. They are robbed in parking lots and in their garages. Drivers on the road are becoming more and more agressive, less caring or aware of the effects of their actions on other drivers, and far more dangerous.
From simple situational awareness to evasive maneuvers like the bootleger hairpin turn, Drive to Survive! gives you the tools and techniques to become a "combat master" of your automobile.
Author Curt Rich draws on his personal experience and expertise as a former Army captain, graduate of numerous high-performance driving schools, two-time SCCA National Rally Champion, and as an instructor for the Porsche Club of America to instruct readers how to avoid becoming the victims of road rage, car jackings, kidnappings, and even traffic accidents.
