26. What's wrong with dialing 911?
Hm, lets see...

Perhaps his cell phone was in the car and he couldn't?

Shooting out a tire? Sorry - that only works in the movies. Try it in real life sometime. Virtually impossible. We'll just ignore the fact that it puts anyone downrange at risk....

Here are some things for you to think about:

1) The man needs his car because he has to get to work to pay his bills.
2) The man needs his car to get home and take care of his sick wife
3) The man needs his car to live his life and cannot afford to replace it.

Just some quick examples off the top of my head.

Not everyone has the ability to just go throw away 20K on a new car tomorrow - especially these days.
