So what, you get done for carrying weapon. First offence you walk away no more to pay. Better than giving your ride to some junkie. ** that.

My mum used to carry a bit of steel piping that she would slide over the end of a tire iron to get more leverage, and it just sat in the boot of the EL, and when pulled over for speeding one day, the cop told her that even though she wasn't using it for anything wrong, that it was still a lethal weapon and that she was to get rid of it. She never did though.

I personally go over it time after time in my head... What would the look on their faces be like if you just pulled out a double barrel shotty and fearlessly pointed it at them, Mad Max style? Haha, oh it would be quite empowering to do that, I'm sure.

No idea. It could be because it was rolling around loose in the boot, easily accessible that it was considered lethal, or that the cop just wanted to be a smart ****, I dunno.

This thread is not about how a driver should 'arm' themselves.

If it continues like this it will be locked.

Errr, brand new cars? My sisters XY came with one, but that must have been the 2007 mk 18 XY?

The car is a big enough weapon for me, but if foot patrol is needed, i have a 6D maglight, to ummm, illuminate the night sky...

You have nothing to grab, and u dont want your car to be damaged, you sit there and cop it, if your at a red light anyway. Mickus whats the sticker on your car anyway?
