A long time ago I remember a thread that a guy posted about the emergency gas shut off sensor in his car activating from shooting his .357 near the open door. I can't for the life of me remember what all was said about this happening. Does anyone know if this is at all a common thing or even possible? I can only assume that some of the parameters of this would have to do with the type of vehicle and whether it is equipped with a shut off sensor. With all the drive by shooting in the 80's and 90's you would think that if this can't happen that much.
The reason I ask is that in a car jacking type situation, there maybe a call to shoot from the seat of your car and then move away from the threat, hard to do if it stalls out. So what say it hive mind, is this a valid concern in any way?
