I absolutely agree, to a point. If I were in my truck I would most likely use my truck as a method to exit a situation unless I were there to prevent someone else from being assaulted, but I'm more often on a motorcycle than anything. That being said, I've thought about this a lot and my conclusion was that I would carry a .357 Sig while on my bike because I've been 'assaulted' by road raged vehicles in the past. My sidearm is a 229 so I practice with it almost exclusively since I can easily swap barrels between .40 and .357. I'm right handed and right eye dominant but I practice left handed at the range to ensure that if the time came I would be able to have one hand on the throttle trying to get away while defending myself with the other.
Just real world stuff to me but my point would be that one needs to identify with what their perceived threat would be and gear up for that. Also practice practice practice those scenarios in your head. I shoot no less than 200 rounds a week with my left hand while facing the other direction in a seemingly motorcycle seated position. Hmmm... if they would only let me take my bike onto the range!
