karder:

Just to throw a little curve ball at you, which differs from
the previous discussion:

Since you are in El Paso, you presumably could be in great
danger at one of these insurance checkpoints since if there
were some illegals from the "killing" side of the border in
the lineup, they could start shooting at the LEO's.

Since you may be bumper to bumper with the vehicles in front
and behind your truck, you would not have the option to mash
the gas and book out of the area.

It would seem to me that you should be ready to exit your vehicle
immediately and flee to the "cover" side of your truck, keeping
your engine block between you and the shooters.

However, drawing your weapon for your own self defense might
cause you to be perceived as the "bad guy" by the defending LEO's
in the gunfight with the gang members.

Stay careful out there. Remember, you can never have TOO MUCH
ammo on you.
