Vehicle Choice and Combat
The vehicle you use for the escort is important. A sturdy car with good firepower is recommended. If you have access to a car with mounted weapons, it will be a sificant advantage. Otherwise, you'll need to rely on your personal firearms. Be prepared to switch between driving and shooting.
